The Missions Committee had success with the Heifer Project and World Vision projects. $1905 was raised in support of the Heifer Project and $100 was raised for World Vision to support Well Water. It was a generous outpouring of support for two worthy projects supporting our brothers and sisters in need. The Christmas Eve offering was split between Waysmeet and A Safe Place with each organization receiving $839.91.
The committee also allocated its budgeted dollars by sending $1,050 to each of three organizations: A Safe Place, My Friends Place and Waysmeet – United Campus Ministry. These projects are all made possible by the members of the congregation; thank you. On January 30th the Church will be celebrating Missions Sunday and we will hear from John Pennington on Habitat for Humanity. A huge thank you goes out to the committee members whose terms are up and who will be leaving the committee; there is a big thank you to John Brothwell, Jeannine Elliott and Barbara Hartwell for a job well done. For new members joining the committee the next meeting will be On Monday, February 7th at 7:30 PM.
