Peoples City Mission Clothing Collection The PCM has placed a clothing collection barrel in the Narthex for the month of April. They will be collecting two types of clothing – good clothing to give to the needy and unusable clothing they use to recycle. The unusable article can be anything of any material that is worn out, i.e. towels, rags, sheets, blankets. So clean your closets and help out a very worthy cause by bringing your discards in to church. It would help if you would separate the types into different bags.
