A heartfelt thank you to all who served at VBS! “The Lord repay your work, and a full reward be given you by the Lord God” Ruth 2:12a

MISSION OF THE WEEK: HAITI’S SCHOOL CHILDREN! The Missionary: Francklin (shown with his wife Nerlie) was appointed as a missionary with Missions Door in 2006 to serve as the youth and children’s ministries coordinator. The Project: For many children in Haiti, the cost of education often hinders them from attending school and receiving an education. Your support to the Haiti Children’s School Scholarships project is an opportunity to provide a child with the gift of an education. All gifts given to this project go directly towards paying for school fees. The Numbers: Cost for 1 Child to attend school for 1 year: $ 355.00. This amount includes: Entry fee of $12, Monthly costs of $20 (x9 months = $180), School supplies worth $50 (includes uniforms!).  https://www.missionsdoor.org/missionary/alexis-francklin-and-nerlie/
