"For I was hungry, and you fed me.  I was thirsty, and you gave me drink.  I was a stranger, and you welcomed me.    (Matthew 25: 35)

SPAN is an ecumenical community outreach program, supported by churches in the Severna Park area.  SPAN provides food and financial assistance to members of the community who are in need.  SPUMC supports SPAN through both monetary and food contributions.  A portion of SPUMC's mission budget is donated to support the work of SPAN.  Members are also encouraged to support SPAN through individual cash contributions and through donations of food.  Non-perishable food items may be placed in the wicker receptacles located near the entrance doors in the portico.

ITEMS NEEDED ON A REGULAR BASIS:

Jelly, Baked Beans, Pork'n Beans, Spaghettios, Canned Mixed Vegetables,
Cake Mixes, Frosting, Pie Crust Mix, Bisquick, Pancake Mix,
Syrup, Beef Stew and Canned Hams.

Cash contributions can be mailed to: SPAN, P.O. Box 626,
Severna Park, MD  21146

HOLIDAY GIVING PROGRAMS

SPAN also runs three Holiday Giving programs – at Easter, Thanksgiving, and Christmas – in which needy families can sign up to receive baskets of food for holiday dinners, gifts at Christmas time, and Easter Baskets for the children at Easter.  Those wishing to contribute to support families during the special Holiday programs should look in the church bulletin or Octagon for specific information or call SPAN at 410-647-0889 approximately 6-8 weeks prior to the holiday.

ALL FOODS SHOULD BE NON-PERISHABLE AS SPAN DOES NOT
HAVE STORAGE FOR PERISHABLES.
