CCF UPDATE: The campaign to support Naydeli,
Ramakrishnan and Zewdeneshe, our three children from
the Christian Children’s Fund, is drawing to a close. The
bill should soon arrive. Our commitment for 2015 is
$1368.00. To this point, up to and including Sunday, April
12, 2015, we have collected $1219.75 towards this
initiative. $914.00 through envelopes, $305.70 from the
soup luncheons and the Sunday School’s cupcake
donations. We are only about $150.00 from our goal.
Thank you, from the Mission & Service Committee, for
your continued support.
As most of the congregation know, the Afternoon AMS have
been supplying food for a hot meal for F.O.O.D.( Feeding
Others of Dartmouth), once a month for several years now.
We buy 25 pounds of hamburger to supply the meal along
with other food. The price of hamburger has increased so
much we were considering not using it or a lesser amount of it.
Charlotte Enman, an employee of Braemar and a member of
the Evening AMS, approached the Superstore manager about
getting a discount. He suggested that they would give a $50
gift certificate each month for food. We are very grateful to
Mr. Gary Davis, for his kind offer and to Charlotte for asking
him on our behalf.
