Operation Christmas Child..... (Shoe Box Ministry) Howard and Eleanor Williams, Mission Coordinators
Angel Tree
No child should be forgotten at Christmas. Children suffer deeply
when they see a mom or dad taken away to prison in handcuffs. There is shame, even though the child did nothing wrong. That's
where Angel Tree steps in. Through Prison Fellowship’s Angel Tree program Christmas gifts are provided. Joan Green, Coordinator

Local
Food Bank The first Sunday of every month, remember to bring in your non-perishable
foods and paper goods for the local food bank. You can also bring items such as toothpaste, shampoo, toothbrushes, etc. Items
can be put in the box provided in the church entry. Would you like to donate but can't bring your donations on Sunday? You
can drop your items off mornings Monday thru Friday in the church office.
Kazakhstan Orphanage
Two Hearts for Hope is a non-profit organization established by two mothers, Kim Prud'homme & Stacy Segebarth.
Our own church family Dave & Roxanne
Kudwa joined these families and traveled to Kazakhstan to adopt their precious children. They fell in love with
not only their own children but with those they had to leave behind. Each month a variety of donations are collected
and sent to the orphanage. |
