VBS Collection - The Yordy family would like to ask for your participation in collecting items for Renault Sunday school program again this year.  This ministry is located in the slums of Les Cayes Haiti and serves up to 1400 children every Sunday. These children are the poorest of the poor and struggle to have their daily needs met.  Helping these children out by providing gently used clothes and shoes is a great blessing to them.  Items suggested:

~ girls and boys clothes size 6 months to size 16.

~ girls and boys shoes, size toddler to adult size 10 (tennis, dress, sandles, flip flops.).

~ Book bags and draw string bags

This collection will take place over vacation bible school week and boxes will be in each entry way. The Yordy's thank you all for the generous donations last year and thank you in advance for assisting in blessing these children again this year.

 

“Redeeming the Time” - Thanks to each of you who have signed up to adopt or have decided to continue to adopt in the coming year!  If there are any others who are yet interested in adopting, this is the last day to sign up at either bulletin board.  We pray that God will be glorified in the coming year as we share time with each other.


Looking Ahead

The Silver Lining - Recently, the Silver Lining featured a special article section about mothers. Now we want to focus on our fathers. You are encouraged to contribute. The topic is: How did your father demonstrate spiritual leadership? Please send your contributions (length: no more than 600 words) answering that question to editor@acsilverlining.org by Jun. 20, 2016.
