(enough to carry the gleaning equipment)
I’ll be your friend
(in the fields)
I’ll help you carry on
(when the beans become heavy)
For, it won’t be long
(many hands make light work)
‘Til I’m going to need
Somebody to GLEAN on!
The Annual Gleaning Trip is scheduled for Saturday, 9.10.11!
(9.10.11? That date sounds familiar...
What an exciting day this will be!)
Meet in the west parking lot of Bethany Lutheran Church (4500 E. Hampden Ave, Cherry Hills Village, CO 80113) by 7:15am on Saturday, September 10th, to sign forms and arrange transportation. Then, we will go to the fields for a morning of crop picking. Please wear sturdy shoes, bring gloves, hat and water. We should return to the church by noon.
When we're done, you are invited to remain at the church for the activities and fun going on there for Avenues of Hope: 9.10.11! Contact Susan Pattison at 303-973-2221 for questions or to sign up or email susan@platteriverbooks.net.
