VBS MISSION PROJECT The Missionary: Francklin (shown with his wife Nerlie) was appointed as a missionary with Missions Door in 2006 to serve as the youth and children’s ministries coordinator. He works with the pastors of churches that are associated with Missions Door in Haiti, helping those churches develop children’s and youth ministries. The Project: For many children in Haiti, the cost of education often hinders them from attending school and receiving an education. Your support to the Haiti Children’s School Scholarships project is an opportunity to provide a child with the gift of an education. All gifts given to this project go directly towards paying for school fees. The Numbers: Cost for 1 Child to attend school for 1 year is $355.00. This amount includes: Entry fee of $12, Monthly cost of $20 (x9 months = $180), School supplies worth $50 (includes uniforms!).

PackHOPE Event Donations for the PackHOPE experience are so welcome! Grab an M&M tube, fill it with quarters and return it by Sept. 5th!
Staying away from sugar? Donate online at: danvillefirstbaptist.org/PackHOPE/. What’s the PackHOPE experience about? We are collecting donations to fund the food we’ll be packing on Saturday, September 11th, and shipping to Unto, who partners with Cru, and ships the food globally! Why food? Food allows their partners and pastors on the ground all over the world to access remote places they are not usually permitted to go. While distributing the food, they build relationships and are able to share the gospel!
