PCK 2025 Plan

1. The BIG event - the deliveries to our recipients will be on Saturday, December 20th.  Although ideally we'd be delivering on the 24th but given that is a Wednesday and many of our volunteers would not be able to be a part of this because of work - we made the decision to deliver the meals on Saturday the 20th so more volunteers would be able to participate in the most fun part of the entire process - actually delivering the meals and seeing the joy they're giving their fellow man.  It's especially powerful for our kids to get to be a part of this - seeing how the less fortunate of us live can be quite eye opening and even quite motivating to them to want to do more for our fellow man.  You can use this link to signup for deliveries.  
2. We will begin cooking the main course during the week leading up to the deliveries but we have already begun preparing some of Patty's special Hors d'Oeuvres.
3. NOTE ONE BIG CHANGE FOR 2025 - This year we will be supplying all the cookies.  This was a rather hard decison because so many people enjoyed making homemade cookies for PCK and our reciepients.  Ultimately the decison was purely based on potential allergies that some reciepients have.  Although we've never had a problem reported back to us we were made aware of various allergies (primarily nut allergies) and we decided that rather than taking any chances we would simply buy top qualty cookies that are completely nut free and come in holiday tins.  
4. Just as we did last year, all of the meal boxes will be pre-packed and marked with both the PCK delivery team name on it as well as the recipients name.  When the delivery miracle workers arrive at the staging site, which will again be at St. Ignatius Church's meeting room, all they will have to do is grab their deliveries and can get on the road.  But please know that  you're certainly welcome to come early and stay as long as you like talking with old and new friends...we'll have drinks and baked goods there for everyone to enjoy. 
5. We have a small team of family and friends who will begin packing the boxes on Friday the 19th.  All of the boxed food will be stored in a refrigerated truck that we have reserved for this event. 
6. Now we're ready for the REAL FUN!  We will be gathering at St. Ignatius Church Meeting Room at 11am on Saturday, December 20.  Miracle Delivering Volunteers can get there anytime around that time (or earlier if you'd like) to get your boxes and the names and addresses of your new friends.  We will once again keep your deliveries within very close proximity to each other so the actual deliveries should take less than an hour - that is unless you are invited inside and end up spending some time making otherwise very lonely people come alive with the excitement of just having a visitor, not to mention a visitor bringing them a Christmas Dinner filled with Love!
7. That's it - that's the plan.  This being PCK's third year the entire operation will be smoother and even more fun than ever before...it'll leave your heart bursting with even more Love this year! 

So Merry Christmas to all and to all a good Life filled with Love -

LOVE - that's what PCK is all about!  It's all that REALLY matters!
