Women on Mission June 2016
In the world today…
An estimated 1.02 billion people, or about one-sixth of the world’s population, are undernourished. Every five seconds, a child dies from malnourishment. In the United States alone, 49 million people - 17 million of whom are children - do not have enough to eat. These are sobering facts for those of us who never miss a meal. What can we do to help change these numbers? -statistics cited at GlobalHungerRelief.com
Since 1981 Oakhill has given to a World Hunger Offering, to be used in America and throughout the world in areas where the need is greatest. These funds are administered by missionaries already on the field.
On June 5th, World Hunger Bread Loaf Banks will be provided for each family. Please put these on your dining table or in a place where family can see it, talk about it, and put money in it on a regular basis. This is a good teaching tool for children, helping them to be generous toward others who are in need.
Return your banks to the church on August the 8th.
Women on Mission will meet Monday, June 13th at the church at 6:00 p.m.
