Kits For Camichines
The mission team really appreciates all of you who have so faithfully brought articles for the hygiene kits. We have reached our goals for everything but toothpaste and washcloths. We still need 647 tubes of toothpaste and 342 washcloths. FYI- Big Lots has large tubes of toothpaste for 90 cents. Our team plans on putting together the kits on Friday June 8th so we will have only one more week to collect articles in the narthex. Can you help us one more Sunday?
