The Bread House would like to spotlight a group that makes monthly donations to the program. The Scrapbooking Group, led by Pat Brantley, meets monthly on a Friday evening and Saturday morning at Cross Corner. All the scrapbookers do not attend Shalimar United Methodist Church, but they share the joy in helping others. They make a monthly donation of food items for admission to the event. This is an excellent source of food for those less fortunate in our community. A sincere thank you to the congregation at Shalimar United Methodist Church and the community for supporting The Bread House! The Bread House is open Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 9:00 am until 12:00 pm.
