MISSIONS NIGHT -- APRIL 10TH
Come to the Wednesday night supper and stay for a special evening that addresses the Mercy Challenge of ministering to the poorly clothed. Our GAs kick off the evening with an international fashion show. Although they will not be poorly clothed, they will remind us of the importance of culture and clothing. We'll hear a report from Charlie and Diane White about the clothing ministry they have been spearheading with poverty stricken counties in West Virginia. The evening will conclude with a hands-on missions project that will help bring warmth to the children receiving Christmas shoeboxes.
One more opportunity to minister: bring an item of clean, in good repair, clothing (or several items) for the Sylva Linings Resale Store. There will be a box for these items as you enter the MFC.
Thanks in advance for helping make our first quarterly Missions Night fun and informative!

Next we'll load up in vans and visit our church's shut-ins and deliver the goody bags.
Finally, we'll come back to church and enjoy some pizza!
Please register to participate by calling the Church Office at 586-2095 by March 21st. Parents and other adults are invited to attend also. Mission Friends are invited to join us, but they must be accompanied by a parent or other adult.
