CHURCH RECYCLING CENTER
Check out the spiffy new look at the recycling center in the Social Hall. We collect church-generated recyclables such as #1 and #2 plastic, glass, cardboard, paper, newspaper, and magazines. You are also encouraged to bring in your aluminum cans (for Habitat for Humanity), household batteries, used printer cartridges (for church office expenses), old eye glasses (for Lions Club), cell phones, and Nabisco cookie wrappers to return for cash. Church volunteers (mainly Ilse Sorensen and the Nimmos) take these items weekly to the city recycling centers.
We also accept old prescription medications for proper disposal or donation to the Laramie County Centralized Pharmacy. Did you know you should never flush medications down the toilet? Stop by the Green Sanctuary corner to find out what to do with your unused medications. The one thing we can all do is RECYCLE!
GREEN SANCTUARY - COOKIE WRAPPER BRIGADE
Bring your cookie wrappers to the church for recycling. These include cookie wrappers for Fig Newtons, Oreos, Chips Ahoy, etc. Any brand is acceptable as long as it is the same type of wrapper. Nabisco is sponsoring the Cookie Wrapper Brigade through Terracycle.net. The Green Sanctuary will then send the wrappers for recycling into other products, such as tote bags. Terracycle will pay 2 cents each for these bags, but the best thing is that they will not be in the landfill. Bring your cookie wrappers to church and put them in our Cookie Wrapper recycling box in the social hall. Thank you for helping keep the Earth green!
