Special collection for Lydia’s House

The Mary and Martha Women’s Group is collecting some much-needed items for Lydia’s House during the month of February. These items include diapers and pull-ups, toilet paper and 32-gallon plastic storage containers. These might seem like an interesting mix of items, but they can make a real difference for people in need. Please drop off your donations in the Ivy Chapel narthex. If you would like more information about Lydia’s House or about this effort, send us an e-mail.

Chili Supper, Feb 18th

Invite your family, friends and neighbors! It’s time again for Ivy Chapel’s famous Chili Supper. Our secret recipes for spicy regular and white chili have made this a favorite regional event.

It’s February 18th from 4 to 7:30 p.m., right here at Ivy Chapel United Church of Christ (620 N. Woods Mill Road, in Chesterfield.) The cost is $8 for adults and $4 for kids under 12… which includes chili, hot dogs for the kids, crackers, veggies and (of course) homemade desserts.

Tickets are available at the door.

Need more info? Drop us a line and we’ll fill you in.
