Wednesday.comm Make-a-Difference Night
May 2, 2018 @ 5:15 pm - 6:30 pm
Wednesday, May 2, 5:15-6:30 p.m.
Our Spring Wednesday.comm season will conclude on May 2 with a fundraising meal, fellowship, donation stations, mission activities, discussions, and games. Everyone is encouraged to attend, even if you’ve never made it to a class or a meal before!
Our fundraising meal will include hamburgers, hotdogs, potato salad, baked beans, and assorted desserts, served and prepared by Allen Porter and friends. Meals are $5.00 per plate (sharing is allowed, max. $15 per family). All proceeds will go to support UMCOR (United Methodist Committee on Relief).
The Nicaragua Water Project Team is raising funds to send to our partner village, Yakalwas, in Nicaragua. Our last project with them was to build a school and now they are asking for clean water. We will need to raise $24,000 to do this. The tables will be decorated to encourage discussion about the scarcity of clean water and there will be water-themed games and activities for families and children.

Children will be painting suncatchers that will be taken to those in need of prayer, healing, comfort, and to our shut-ins.
