July ChipIns Posted

The July widgets are up on the sidebar.  We have challenged our FaceBook fans to donate(at least) $2 to each family. It can be done.  $8 a month – or even a week – is such a small amount to most of us. Let’s work together to meet the needs of these families. We already have a praise this month. Mrs. Brass needed a repair to some of her appliances, so we added that to her ChipIn.... [Read more of this article]

How to Hold An Online Fund Raiser

If you are not, then look her up. Let her... [Read more of this article]
