The mission teams need your support! Please consider purchasing a ticket for the auction and attending.

 

Containers- We are shipping a second container to Liberia on May 7th.  Can you help load?  Please contact me.  We are also raising funds to ship a third container from St Louis that has enough books to establish a library in Liberia.  We need $2500 to do this.  Please consider making a donation for this project.

 

Glasses-How many of you have an old pair of glasses in your dresser drawers?  We want them!  These glasses could make a big difference to someone who needs a pair of glasses but cannot afford to purchase a pair.  We want to ship as many eye glasses as possible on the container leaving on May 7th.  Please contact us if you have some to donate.

 

Thank you!
