Sock and Shoe Drive:  Would you prayerfully consider donating a pair of shoes for a needy child who has worn flip flops all summer and will soon need closed toed shoes to keep their feet warm this winter?  If you don’t have a pair that you can donate, would you consider giving up going out to eat one meal and eating at home, then using that money to shop a clearance rack for a pair of shoes?  Use it as a teaching time for your children and let them help you shop for a child in need.  Please bring your donations no later than Sunday, September 16^th.  Collection boxes are at both campus’. Volunteers are also needed to help with the distribution on Saturday, September 22^nd, 12:30 – 4:00 pm at Gibsontown Ministries.  To sign –up, or for more information, contact Melissa Sherfey at sherfem@comcast.net or the Glenwood Campus office at 323-2187.

Reminders:
It is very important to sign-up as early as possible for any activities or events that we are having. It makes planning difficult when we don't know how many people are coming, particularly when there is food that needs to be purchased, or t-shirts that have to be ordered in advance. We need to know who is coming, (including family members for Fit for the King), to any or all of the following events. You can sign up at either campus at the Women's Ministry table, or call the contact person:
