Our Annual La Crosse Jail Ministry Volunteer Appreciation Breakfast went very well again this year.

Thank you to our many volunteers!
Special thanks to the following who donated goods or prizes to our celebration:
First Presbyterian Church, Festival Foods, Meringue Bakery and NOM Sip & Eat, Southside Culvers, Daabin Store, Courtesy Corporation.
You all helped make our Appreciation Breakfast successful.

First Congregational Church, UCC La Crosse

We would like to thank them for the many books they provided to our library along with organizers. They provided an assortment of faith-based books for fighting addiction. These represented the many different faiths of the people in the jail. They also donated many graphic Bibles for people that struggle with reading yet want to pursue their Christian faith.

We would like to thank them as well for a $2000 grant that will be used to provide hygiene and other supplies for the residents of the La Crosse County Jail. It will also be used to provide games and puzzles.

The La Crosse Jail Ministry would like to thank the following businesses and people for donating to our Bake Sale and Raffle. We are grateful to the many bakers that donated as well. Thanks to your generosity and the generosity of our community we were able to earn 928 dollars!
