RED CROSS HANDS and HEART 1

STOP THINKING ABOUT IT and MAKE YOUR APPOINTMENT!

Giving blood year-round is a fantastic way to give that won't cost you a penny and only a minimal amount of your time.

Blood is always in high demand by those with cancer, a chronic disease, sickle cell, or if they've suffered trauma, such as a fall, accident or burn.

2020 10 07 LOGO CHILD SAVING INSTITUTE

All children need a secure place to learn and grow. The ideal place should be in their own home, however many kids are not that fortunate.

 In times of neglect or abuse, a child must sometimes be removed from their home at a moment's noticed and placed in a warm, safe place. Kids of all ages, from birth through high school, sometimes need the help of the Child Saving Institute.

CSI helps foster parents and biological families learn the skills they need for a safe, well-cared-for, and loving family life.During this unsettling time of covid-19, the Murray Christian Church is collecting essential cleaning items for the Child Saving Institute.

If you would like to donate, here are some things they could use: Pine Sol, Lysol Disinfectant Spray, sanitizing wipes, latex and powder-free disposable gloves, (L & XL), and hand sanitizer.

Please bring items to Murray Christian Church, 304 W Young St, Murray, NE on Wednesdays, Thursdays or Fridays, between the hours of 10-2:00. You may call the church ahead of time, 402-235-2527, to be sure someone will be there to assist you.

Thank you for helping to keep these children, (and the CSI staff), healthy and happy!


 2023 09 06 KIDS EATING 1

The Conestoga Backpack Program continues to furnish food to local families in need. The program serves the Murray, Nehawka, Union and Beaver Lake areas in southeast Nebraska, and will not turn anyone away.

Just by adding a few of the items listed below to your shopping list and picking them up, you'll be helping someone in a big way. Keep in mind that some of the children are very young and are possibly 'preparing' their own meals, so easy-to-open containers are a good option for little hands.

Canned soup
Granola bars
Fruit snacks
Dry pasta
Spaghetti sauce
Dry soup mixes
Canned meat (chicken, tuna)
Boxed prepared meal kits (Hamburger Helper, Rice-a-Roni)
Peanut butter
Jelly
Canned fruit and vegetables
Single-serve cereals

Also needed are hygienic supplies, toothbrushes, toothpaste, soap, cotton swabs, tissues and toilet paper.

To make a monetary donation instead, a check made payable to 'CONESTOGA BACKPACK PROGRAM' may be mailed or deposited at Cornerstone Bank, 102 W Main St, Murray, NE 68409. 100% of all monies collected is used for food and hygienic supplies for the families.

To have the items picked up, call Jill at 402-660-3543 to make arrangements. As another alternative, you may drop them off at Cornerstone Bank in Murray or at their Beaver Lake location.

Your help is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

2023 09 27 LOFTE PAVILION 1

We're excited to share some important news regarding the much-anticipated

Lofte Theatre Pavilion Grand Opening event.

Due to the severe weather forecast for September 23rd, we have rescheduled the Pavilion Grand Opening event originally planned for that day. We understand that many of you were eagerly looking forward to joining us on that date, and we apologize for any inconvenience this change may cause.

The New Date: October 7th, 2023

Rescheduling the event will allow us to ensure an even more remarkable and memorable experience for our valued guests and patrons. Rest assured, our commitment to providing you with an exceptional event remains unwavering.

Why You Shouldn't Miss It:

Bigger and Better: We'll use this extra time to enhance and perfect every detail of the Pavilion Grand Opening!
See Born-in-a-Barn Players Performing Live: We've got lots of talent performing throughout the day. Born-in-a-Barn players new and old will be showing off their musical skills - stay tuned for performer announcements!
Safety is Our Priority: Your safety and well-being are our top priorities. Rather than risk the rain and dangerous weather we want to ensure that this event is as safe as it is enjoyable.

Save the New Date:

Date: October 7th, 2023

Time: 10:00 am to 9:00 pm (see full schedule below)

Location: Lofte Community Theatre 15841 Manley Road, Manley, NE 68403

Due to the reschedule, many of our vendors have understandably been unable to adjust their plans. If you are a vendor and would like to have a table at the Pavilion Grand Opening, please contact Sheri Berger at sheri@lofte.org (Please work with Sheri directly if you're iterested in a booth and contact her only at this email address. Any other email may not be officially affiliated with the Lofte. We are not looking for cooked food/ food truck/ mobile restaurant vendors for this event at this time)

We truly appreciate your understanding and continued support during this time of adjustment. We can't wait to share this extraordinary evening with you on October 7th.
