June Women On Mission

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?

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 7 World Hunger Bread Loaf Banks will be provided for each family.  Please put these on your dining
table or in a place where the family can see it, talk about it, and put money in it on a regular bases.  This is a good teaching tool for children, helping them to be generous toward others who are in need.

Banks will be returned to the church on August 9.

Women on Mission will meet Monday, June 15 at 7:00 p.m. at the church.  All our ladies are invited to be with us.
