HANDS OF LOVE
Terry Baker visited the PGKids Girls-in-Action group and told them about the Hands of Love Ministry and the organizations and people they support. What a great way for some of the missionaries within our church to teach the next generation about missions!
This caring ministry meets the 1st & 3rd Mondays of each month at 10:30 a.m. in the Fellowship Hall. Anyone interested is invited to participate. Hands of Love contacts are: Robin Rowell (919.810.6491) or Terry Baker (919.552.2279)

OPERATION CHRISTMAS CHILD
Beginning in February we'll start the monthly collection of items for the 2020 Operation Christmas Child Shoebox packing party. Each month a list of suggested items will be listed in the newsletter & bulletins. You may drop these in the collection bins in the hall across from the library.
Many of you have already started gathering and making items. I've found lots of great deals at after Christmas sales. Always ask to speak to a manager to see if you can get a cheaper price for the markdowns (you don't know if you don't ask).
Last fall, our church family provided 1,124 opportunities for children to learn about the love of Jesus through the shoeboxes. Please continue to pray for the children who will receive the boxes.
Thank you for all you do to support this ministry. If you're interested in getting involved with this ministry, please contact
Sandra King
or (919) 552-6785.

NOTES OF THANKS
Thank you for all the cards, calls, visits, food, & prayers during dad's sickness and home-going. Your support meant more than words can express. Dad loved his church family and serving his Lord. While there is an earthly void, we rejoice in knowing he is in heaven with mom and so many other Piney Grove saints.
May God Bless You,
The Henry Lawrence Family
