Children’s
Mission Project
Infant Care Kits
This
year, instead of exchanging gifts, the children are going to make Infant Care Kits
for the babies in Honduras. The children will work together to assemble
the kits at the Children’s Christmas Party.
We are asking that each child donate an item or items from the following
list. Stephanie Hancock’s dad and other
mission workers from the Friends of Barnabas Foundation will deliver them
to the families in need on their next trip.
We
need your help! In order to make as many kits as possible, we
are asking everyone to participate. You
may place items in the box in the commons area, or make a monetary donation, if
you prefer, and we will purchase needed items.
Questions, please contact Stephanie Hancock at 639-6091.
