Meal Train for the Gerke Family


The online Meal Train for the Gerke family continues through June. This busy household has recently been blessed with twins! If you are able to assist them with a prepared meal it would be greatly appreciated. To volunteer, go to Mealtrain.com. You will need to sign in and then use the code https://mealtrain.com/48dv77 to get to the Gerke Family train. Pick a date and bring your meal to church the Sunday before it is expected. Label it and put it in the kitchen refrigerator. Someone from the family will see that it is delivered to Jim and Tracy! Sincere thanks to those who have already participated.
