Women On Mission - November 2024
Our International Mission study is Wednesday, December 4th at 12:00 pm in the Fellowship Hall, led by Pastor Paul Willett. We will learn about our mission work in Central Asia, a region that stretches from the Caspian Sea and Eastern Europe to Western China and Mongolia and from Afghanistan and Iran to Russia. This is an area that has been in the news often in recent years right up to our present time.
As we approach the end of this calendar year, I wanted to remind our members, as well as inform the newer ones about our World Mission Club. This is an opportunity to give to missions on a weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly basis. This is collected throughout the year and distributed at the end of the year, as follows:
Lottie Moon Christmas Offering 51.6%
Annie Armstrong Easter Offering 19.6%
Life Change Central (Oakhill Ministries) 10.0%
State Missions Offering 10.0%
State Camp Offering 8.8%
Our Goal for 2024 is $35,000
If you are not currently giving in this systematic way, please consider doing so in 2025. Boxed envelopes are provided by the church. You can designate World Missions Offering on your envelope (this is over and above our tithes.) In addition, a special offering is taken for Lottie Moon at Christmas and Annie Armstrong at Easter which is added to the club receipts at the end of the year. The World Hunger Offering is a separate offering taken in the summer.
The Evansville Rescue Mission has asked us to collect green beans for their Gobbler Gathering Thanksgiving Baskets. Our goal is 800 cans! The deadline is Sunday, November 17th.
