From the Missions Committee

    Current Missionaries are Michael & Maria Long - they are in the United States at this time for Family time and they will be

    EACH QUARTER OUR MISSIONS COMMITTEE CHOSES A SPECIAL PROJECT THROUGH FREE METHODIST WORLD

     International Child Care Ministries - dreams of a world where every child is loved, safe and developing their
     God-given potential.   Child sponsorship provides education and/or school supplies, nutrition, activities for all
​     aspects of a child's development, and most importantly hope.

                           Just $1 per day can change the whole trajectory of a child's life!

       Each adult Sunday School Class supports at least one child from a foreign country. Plus there are several
​       families in the church that also support children through ICCM.  If you would like more information about sponsoring a child, please see Teresa Waggoner.

    THE MISSION FOCUS FOR JULY, AUGUST AND SEPTEMBER, WILL BE THE EDEN 
                       REFORESTATION PROJECT or HAITI TREE PROJECT.
INTERNATIONAL CHILD CARE MINISTRIES PARTNERS WITH EDEN REFORESTATION PROJECT

                                        QUARTERS, DOLLARS or write a check to ICCM, with Trees in the memo!
