Mathew 25:38
A group of men from various Christian Faith Communities are
having a Kairos retreat, born out of the Catholic Cursillo retreats
meant to strengthen the Christian Faith of those who attend and
bring the faith to those without or struggling
with their faith.
-42 inmates plus a team of 44 men from
several churches will be at Broad River
Prison from Thursday, October 23rd thru
Sunday October 26th, to take part in this
retreat to bring Jesus to all. As a part of this we give a small bag of 2
or 3 cookies to each of the 1100 inmates with a Christian message
each of the three evenings we are there –we need thousands of
cookies
If you can help bake some cookies – please enclose them in larger
clear gallon or quart size plastic bags and they will be included in this
offering (we will put them in smaller bags at the prison for delivery).
Cookies can be baked ahead of time and frozen. This can be a fun
project for a small group to get together and do something good for
your church. We will also take store bought cookies. Please deliver
the cookies to the small kitchen area in the atrium of the church
office by Wednesday afternoon October 22nd -- men if you feel
compelled to participate in this special ministry contact David
Schirato -749-0442 -- if not help get us some cookies -so often more
is gotten than given –as is many things –with Jesus the Lord.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONTINUING SUPPORT – LET’S
SHOW WITH THIS SMALL OFFERING THAT SOMEONE
CARES.
