MISSIONS COMMITTEE
The Mission committee is collecting used men's jeans and work
khakis in good condition sizes 34 and 36. They are also in need
of men's hats and shirt and long sleeve T-shirts. They will also be
collecting women's and children's summer clothes only in all
sizes. All donations will be used for the Migrant Ministry in June.
Please drop off your donations to the church office.

This past weekend a few of our high school

students attended the Strength to Stand student
conference in Pigeon Forge, TN. We had an
amazing weekend together. I am praying for the
students who were with us to remember what God
did in your life and to live it out in your daily walk
with Him.
Disciple Now weekend is just around the corner.
This year during our mission time we are going to
be giving out coats, jackets, and underwear to
needy families. This is a great way to minister to
the families in our community who do not have
these essential needs for the winter months. If you
would be willing, we are accepting donations of
like new or new coats or jackets for all sizes. Also,
we will be accepting donations for elementary aged
boys and girls underwear. The number of kids
attending our elementary schools without
underwear is alarming. So this is your way to have
a hand in DNOW 2017. You can bring donations to
the church office. Thanks!!
Blessings,
Jeff
