"Because
He First Loved Us"Many years ago the New Haven ladies would meet twice a month at the church for what was then called “Women's Fellowship”. Over the years, the fellowship slowly faded away. After retiring from a nursing career, Janie Gable restarted this group in the winter of 2012. They started by making fleece blankets and donating them to fire victims, the fire department and CPS. Janie collected information on many projects and they soon started making pillowcase dresses for Haiti, birthing kits for Bangladesh, and later that summer, shorts for little boys. In the fall of 2013, they had a Swiss steak supper to help with funding. The dinner was a huge success and they changed their group name to Mission Outreach.
The group also sews for the organization Threads of Love. This organization is made up of many churches of many denominations all working together for the same cause. Threads of Love sends their shipments along with missionaries to help orphans and needy children. The Mission Outreach Group is excited for the work they can do in the future to help the needy throughout God’s Kingdom. Working together for His purpose, they have made many memories and have built some lifelong relationships. Interested in helping with this group? They are now accepting gently used clothing in child sizes 2 - 8. They collect peanut butter, small toy cars, small stuffed animals, pillowcases, fabrics, threads, elastics (½ & ¾”) and rick rack. Of course, willing helpers and sewers are always welcome and deeply appreciated! The Mission Outreach meets every other Thursday at the church and also an occasional Saturday meeting. Meeting dates and times are listed in the church bulletin. |

Samaritans Purse - Shoe Boxes
The story of the Good Samaritan (Luke 10:30-37) gives a clear picture of God’s desire for us to help those in desperate need wherever we find them. For over 40 years, Samaritan’s Purse has done their utmost to follow Christ’s command by going to the aid of the world’s poor, sick, and suffering. We are an effective means of reaching hurting people in countries around the world with food, medicine, and other assistance in the Name of Jesus Christ. This, in turn, earns us a hearing for the Gospel, the Good News of eternal life through Jesus Christ.
Praise God for More Than 10.6 Million Shoe boxes in 2018!
