ANNOUNCEMENTS, cont.
The Moldova school kits ask for $1 to purchase Moldovan notebooks to add to the kits once we get there. There is a white container on the library counter for you to put your dollars into rather than in the school kit bag. Thanks! – Martha Franz
The next WMSC meeting is Thursday. Rachael Hochstedler will be hostess and Donna Gautsche will have devotions. The project is school kits for Moldova.
If you are planning to attend college this school year and would like our prayers, please let Beth Miller know so that she can post it in the weekly bulletin.
