USO Food Drive


  • Concordia Lutheran Church 505 South Kirkwood Road Kirkwood, MO, 63122 United States (map)

Join us throughout the month of November as we partner with the USO to support our service members and their families through a church-wide food drive! Showing our gratitude for those who serve is a vital part of living out our faith, and your generosity can make a real, daily impact for military families in our community. We are collecting donations all month long, so please drop off your contributions on the two tables along the Spotlight Wall in the church lobby during any service or weekday office hours. Thank you for opening your hearts and helping us bless those who sacrifice so much for us!
