Health Kits for Haiti
Throughout 2010, our congregation is encouraged to donate Haiti health
care items to support the United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR)
effort in Haiti. Items on the list may be dropped off at our main building
any day or at our Crossroads facility on Wednesday evenings. You may
purchase items or donate money (approx. $12 per kit). Please make checks
payable to First UMC and earmark: Health Kits. All items included in kits
must be new. See display in the parlor or contact Joe and Becky Clark at
654-8766 or Kathy Halverson at 653-3556, Global Missions, if you have any
questions.
