Women On Mission - November 2023
Our International Mission study is Wednesday, December 1st at 12:00 pm in the Fellowship Hall, led by Pastor Paul Willett. We will learn that Zambia is the land of Victoria Falls and David Livingstone, of termite mounds the size of trucks, of wildebeest migrations, and of copper and clear-cut emeralds. It is slightly larger than the state of Texas. Christianity arrived with European missionaries in the 1800’s.
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 2023 is $35,000
If you are not currently giving in this systematic way, please consider doing so in 2024. 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 mac and cheese for their Gobbler Gathering Thanksgiving Baskets. Our goal is 800 boxes! The deadline is Sunday, November 12th.
Women on Mission will meet Thursday, November 2nd at 1:00 pm in the Grace classroom across from the Fellowship Hall. All ladies are invited to attend.
