Volunteers will set up a beautiful display of produce harvested from the seeds and soil that were blessed in May before planting. The artistic arrangement and lovely harvest-themed hymns have been a longstanding tradition at the church.
Many years ago, the produce was given to the pastor as part of his pay. In later years, it was delivered to Phoebe Home.
This year, the Northern Lehigh and Allentown Ecumenical food banks will be recipients of the harvest items, plus canned and packaged food collected in a wheelbarrow.
