Let’s show our Christmas Spirit!
It’s that time of the year again...when Santa is
making his list and checking it twice! And what
does he see? Merritt Island Presbyterian Church
Day Care needs some help. All those little
kiddos sure can make a mess! So let’s give them some help by donating cleaning
supplies once again.
Bring in your donations of kid-friendly cleaning
supplies...baby wipes, disinfectant wipes, hand
sanitizer, etc. Let’s outdo ourselves and provide
them with a PILE of clean!!!
