A Pet
We call this hand-
some fellow Ole Shep.
He was found wandering
the streets alone. When
no owner could be found,
we took him in and are
helping him find a lov-
ing home to live out his
golden years. He appears
to be a shar pei/Labrador
/ husky mix, about 7 years
old. He is quite agile and
frisky and has no health
issues that we are aware
of. He is very sweet and
also housebroken. If you
have been looking for a
more mature dog to share
your life with, you will
want to meet Ole Shep.

ment, call 432-3091 or

The Shelton School Dis-
trict on Feb. 12 presented
Saints' Pantry with the

food as part of its backpack

The Shelten-based
nonprofit organization
was nominated for the
award by Bordeaux El-
ementary Principal Carey
Murray.
Each Friday, volun-
teers for Saints' Pantry
assemble 150 packs of
food that are distributed
to students in need to
help them, and sometimes
members of their families,
get through the weekend.
These students receive
free lunches during the
week.
Steve Russell, director
of Saints' Pantry, said he
shares the honor with the
people and organizations
who donate to the back-
pack program. The con-
tents of each backpack cost
about $5.50 each, or about
$3,300 each month.

life skills in the kitchen,
eight years ago, offering
to help serve the hungry
that always knew they
could find a meal there.
This worked out well
for about a year, and then
some of the adults de-
veloped health problems
restricting them from
participating. Weza kept
the ministry going by her-
self, and one night when
she was facing the meal
preparation alone, she set
up five stations hoping for
five helpers to show.
Volunteers did start
showing up and after all
the stations were filled,
the five strangers worked
side-by-side to prepare a
huge meal for others.
Kamin then talked
INC, which first appeared
in 2009. The Ministry has
grown from seven to 20
churches, aids more than
1,200 people, re-donates
$21,000 in materials and
had almost 2,600 volun-
teers hours in 2012.
Churches of all de-
nominations partner with
Love INC to combine re-
sources in providing help
for county residents.
The Mason County
office operates a clear-
inghouse where requests
are verified and then
matched with the appro-
priate church ministry,
community organization
or volunteer mentor for
help. Current Gap Min-
istries provide many
material goods for recipi-
ents: food for the Food
Bank, children's clothing
through Northwest Chil-
kets of Love, furniture,
bedding, firewood, medi-
cal equipment, backpacks
with hygiene supplies for
released offenders and
homeless youth and hats
for oncology patients.
Love INC of Mason Coun-
ty's next goal is to of-
fer additional relational
ministries such as budget
mentoring, stress man-
agement, programs for
strengthening families
and job readiness classes.
Love INC took 427
case files in 2012 helping
623 adults and 533 chil-
dren through the help of
almost 2 600 volunteer
hours.
To contact Love INC,
call center hours are 10
a.m. to 1 p.m. Tuesday
through Thursday, at
462-LOVE ext. 5683 or
