ATTENDANCE SHEETS found in the bulletin will assist us in making sure that all of our members are being cared for as needed during our vacancy. Please fill them out EACH WEEK and place them in the offering plate.
COMMUNITY MISSION has a critical need for bath towels and washcloths for use in their shelter. Used items are acceptable if they are clean and in useable condition. New or used items can be dropped off at their main office, 1570 Buffalo Avenue anytime, 7 days a week.
SUMMER MISSION PROJECT: We are accepting donations of school and craft supplies, socks, and underwear for children in need in Niagara Falls. School supplies and clothing will be distributed directly to students by the teachers and nurses at Harry Abate Elementary School as they identify those who truly need assistance. Craft supplies will support Potter’s Field, as they meet with and mentor high risk children who do not have a stable adult in their life. Please remember this project as you do your shopping this summer.
AUGUST MISSION ENVELOPES are designated to support WINGS FLIGHTS OF HOPE. Medical air transport normally costs in excess of $15,000 per flight. Wings is a local, all-volunteer group of pilots and support staff who provide FREE air transportation to patients in need of medical attention at a specialized location. These are patients who cannot travel on commercial flights because of their medical needs. The pilots at Wings donate their time, planes, and all expenses. Please help us support Wings with your August mission envelopes, or donate online under “monthly mission”.
CHOIR will be getting back together soon. New members are needed. If you are interested, please speak to Ross Folmsbee or Maye Smith (our organist) with questions
