Seeking salad plates for sustainable coffee hour

Beginning Sunday, June 19, weekly in-person coffee hour will resume in the Community Commons after both the 9 a.m. and 11:15 a.m. worship services. As part of Foundry's commitment to sustainability, we will use reusable dishes instead of disposable products. To support this, we are seeking donations of reusable plates, approximately 6-8 inches in diameter (salad sized) with no cracks or chips. You can bring your dishes to the front desk at Foundry on Sundays and Fridays from 9 a.m. until 1 p.m. 

On Saturday, May 21, Social Justice Ministries invites you to a Service and Retreat Day at Manidokan camp in Knoxville, Maryland. Here, we will help Manidokan prepare for the upcoming summer camp season. We will also serve and have lunch together with our youth.
