The communion offering for July is for the Popcorn Zoo Animal Sanctuary, a refuge for animals in need. It is located in the scenic pine barrens of Ocean County. Started in 1977 it is the home of over 200 animals and birds who suffered abandonment, cruelty, injury, illness, handicap, old age and inappropriate ownership. Wildlife, farm animals, and exotics all have spacious living quarters and are assured a lifetime of good care. When and if possible the animals are released to their natural habitats.
