2017 REACH Mission Trip to Crossville, Tennessee

 E-Connection July 3, 2017 |

Yesterday during worship, the REACH Mission Team was recognized and prepared to be sent off with prayer and dedication. Next Sunday, as you gather for worship, we will be on our way to Crossville, Tennessee, for the opportunity to extend the hands and feet of Jesus Christ to those in need. The 31 of us are hoping to make a difference. I know that a difference will be made in us as well.
Please remember that Thursday, July 13 is our assigned "Day of Prayer", when our congregation is asked to deliberately pray for all aspects of our trip, from the school where we'll be staying to our evening programs. The Crossville community and the REACH community appreciate your prayers.
If you would like to send something to us while we're away, the mailing address is: (Attn: Camper's name), Homestead Elementary School, 3889 Hwy 127 S, Crossville TN 38555.
We look forward to sharing our experiences with you when we return.
Jeremy Daniels, Associate Pastor
Director of Youth & Young Adult Ministries

Putnam Shoes for Children
Offerings from Vacation Bible School and the Good News for Children coin jar in July are for Putnam Shoes for Children, which supplies new, quality shoes and socks for elementary children who cannot afford them in Putnam County. They partner with Shoe Carnival at the Huntington Mall which gives additional discounts for shoes and socks. For the fall 2016 school year, 128 pairs were purchased. Schools that participated in the program were Buffalo Elementary, Conner St. Elementary, Hometown Elementary, Poca Elementary, and West Teays Elementary. Your generosity provides children with new shoes that enable them to attend school in comfort and with dignity, allowing them to focus on their studies rather than their circumstances.
