Food Pantry gives thanks

To the Editor:

We would like to take this opportunity to thank the Oxford Hills Rotary Club for its generous food donation. Your boxes of food came at a time which helped many people for Thanksgiving and will help at Christmas too.

Also we wish to thank every person who has donated food or has given a gift card.

Thank you to all individuals who put cash in the collection container at the West Paris Town Office. We were able to purchase turkeys to feed four families.

We were truly grateful when we received boxes of food from the Otisfield Pantry. Thank you for sharing with us.

We've been struggling to keep our shelves stacked as the need is so great, feeding many. The pantry is open twice a month on the first and third Tuesday, from 1 to 3 p.m. West Paris residents are invited to come once a month.

If you want to help, donations are accepted at the church or mail to: West Paris Baptist Church, P.O. Box 57, West Paris, ME 04289. Call 674-3205 if you need help.

A sincere thank you from all of us at the West Paris Baptist Church.

Phillip and Dianne Waterhouse
