Our Haiti Mission’s Team is preparing for their trip April 16-23. In addition to prayer and financial support, there are a couple projects that will help them minister to the people in Haiti.

#1 Please bring clean, dry Weis/Giant plastic bags. These are used to put beans/rice packs in to give to families in the churches where they will serve. Bags may be placed in the laundry basket located in the chapel hallway.

#2 Choose an item from the display board in the chapel hallway to help purchase recreational items for the children at the various churches where the team will be holding clinics.

Have you ever wanted a garden but didn’t know how to make it happen? Let this be the year you do it, and help out the food bank in the process! If you are interested in helping with a garden project that would provide food to the local food bank, please call the church office. You do not need any prior experience or a green thumb…just a willingness to help!
