Because the Gospel has so impacted our lives, we are compelled to spread this message both near and far. Our desire is to see the Gospel expressed in practical ways. This year's theme is "Impact the World". So on September 18, we will have several area churches partner with us for an Outreach Caregiver event from 10am-2pm where we will assemble caregiver kits. These kits will contain items for those that help care for dying AIDS patients. Kits contain items such as a flashlight, washcloths, a tablet of paper and pens, petroleum jelly, etc. Many of these kits will be shipped to third world countries, but will be used all over the world where AIDS assistance is needed.
In conjunction with this event, Pastor John's (from Uganda) orphanage cares for children whose parents have died from AIDS. Our church family is being asked to seek God about sponsoring a child in Uganda at the orphanage. To read about the children, see their picture, and sign up for sponsorship, please see a member of the Outreach team at the Welcome Center for the next 4 weeks.
As a precursor to our September event, youth groups from First United and White Plains United Methodist Churches will be helping us impact the world as our Ignite Youth Ministry hosts an AIDS Caregiver Kit Assembly event on July 30th from 9:00 am -4:30 pm. All teens should sign up outside of Classroom 4. The kit assembly will take place in the Multipurpose room, followed by an off-site fellowship opportunity with youth groups from First United and White Plains United Methodist churches.
