APRIL MISSION ENVELOPES are designated to support Pioneer on the Lake. Several of our teens and their leaders will be joining numerous other youth in May for the camp’s Junior/Senior High retreat weekend, where they will enjoy lots of fun and games, Christian fellowship, worship and devotions, and a service project. Pioneer is offering numerous camps and events this season, including weekend family camps, music week, various retreats for all ages, weekly car cruises, and worship on most Sundays. Various accommodations, including fully equipped and air conditioned cabins, are available for families or groups to rent for a relaxing get-away. If you would like to support the upkeep and programs at Pioneer, please place your mission envelope in the offering plate or donate online under “monthly mission” during April.
OISHEI COMFORT BAGS are provided to all new admits that enter OCH. Comfort bags ensure families have a warm welcome, the necessary toiletries needed during their admission, and a few activities/ treats to reduce an oftentimes stressful scenario and to provide some measures of care and comfort while they are away from home. We have volunteers that distribute these comfort bags three time a week. You can find a list of accepted items on the display tables outside the sanctuary.
ESPECIALLY APPRECIATED for our Oishei mission project are $5 gift cards to Tim Horton’s, VISA, Tops, Target, Walmart, or gas stations. They can be placed in the box on the donation tables or given to Marla Crawford. Thank you to all who have already donated to help comfort the children and families at our Children’s Hospital. We will continue to accept gift cards and other donations through April.
