HURRICANE RELIEF UPDATE

FLOOD BUCKET SUPPLIES. One of the ways all of us can help is through purchasing items for assembling of flood buckets. These go into relief areas. You can purchase any of the items listed below and deliver to the church.

Assembly of the first batch of flood buckets will take place on Sunday, Sept. 28 - meet at 12:15 p.m. (just after the late service) in the MAC - a light lunch will be served and then we will start packing. All ages are welcome!

Items Needed For Flood Buckets (please note the sizes indicated, as all of the items have to fit in the bucket):
  • sponges
  • disinfectant dish soap (16 to 28 oz. size)
  • latex gloves
  • work gloves
  • insect repellant spray (6 to 14 oz size)
  • air freshener (8 or 9 oz size)
  • clothes line (50 foot or 100 foot length)
We also need cash donations to cover the other items which are being purchased in bulk. It is estimated that $55 will cover all of the supplies for one buckets, but donations may be made in any amount. Mark your check "Flood Bucket."

Donations for other hurricane relief will continue to be accepted. Mark those checks "Hurricane." You can read Bishop Huie's letter to see something of how those funds are to be used (separate post below dated 9-19-08).
