From 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., community members brought in donations of cash, canned goods, frozen turkeys, ham, milk, eggs, treats and pantry staples to fill the warehouse at Florence Food Share.

Director Norma Barton said, “I have a ton of gratitude for Cindy Wobbe, Wayne Sharpe and Woody Woodbury for helping over the years and so much. I’m especially thankful for our volunteers, staff and board for putting in so much work. The community did an amazing job.” The giving season is not over, however — Florence Food Share’s annual Empty Bowls Fundraiser will be at the Florence Events Center next weekend.

Baha’i members to present Chilean slideshow Put your money where your heart is. Shop small this holiday season! 1355 HWY 101 • www.opbc.com • (541) 997-7121 member Members of the Florence Baha’i community, Paul and Frances Klippel, will be pre- senting a slideshow and infor- mation about their recent trip to Chile on Saturday, Nov. 26, beginning at 2 p.m., in the Bromley room at the Siuslaw Public Library. The Klippels traveled to Santiago, Chile, to attend a historic world event: the ded- ication of the Baha’i House of Worship for the continent of South America. This dedication is the cul- mination of a 100-year effort to build Baha’i Houses of Worship on each continent. This goal was realized Oct. 13, in Penanolen, located on the outskirts of Santiago, Chile, at the base of the COURTESY PHOTO Paul and Francis Kippel at the dedication of a new Baha’i temple in Penanolen, Chile Andes Mountains. The dedication of the sev- enth and final House of Worship took place with 5,000 Baha’is from 130 coun- tries celebrating the invita- tion-only, three-day event. The Klippels will be shar- ing and weaving story, videos and photos of cultural high- lights of the dedication, aspects of the beautiful nine- sided dome architecture, unique materials used, and the unifying, sacred spirit these Houses of Worship rep- resent. Baha’is also symbolize worship and service, two vital parts of human life, and Baha’i Houses are open to people of all religious and non-religious backgrounds. At the center of these Temples is the heart of the oneness of humanity.
