ATTENTION: Not one, but TWO great mission opportunities in May 2008:
1. West Virginia: We are sending a mission team to work in southwestern West Virginia the week of May 10-17, 2008. As in past years, team members will get “down and dirty” helping people who have experienced floods or fires, poverty or poor health, and have great need for our assistance. If you are able-bodied, want to serve God, and possess some light construction skills, you qualify!
2. New Orleans: We are sending a mission team to New Orleans the week of May 17-24, 2008. We will partner with Redeemer Presbyterian Church in the ongoing rebuilding effort. Redeemer Presbyterian Church (www.redeemerneworleans.com) has a house set aside for mission teams and has hosted more than 80 teams, rebuilding more than 200 houses damaged by Hurricane Katrina. This Trip is now full. We hope to have more trips to the Gulf Coast in the future.
IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN EITHER OF THESE MISSION TRIPS, CONTACT THE CHURCH OFFICE FOR MORE INFORMATION.
Arcadia Food Drive
Graystone will be collecting canned and non-perishable items for the Arcadia community. The food will be collected in the Gathering Place, Welcome Center, and Carpenter Avenue entrance. The food will then be delivered that week to the Arcadia Presbyterian Church to be distributed through their food pantry. Don't miss your opportunity to help feed the hungry in our own county!
