Project Agape Boxes
Today is the kick-off! For several years, the NC Conference has adopted Project AGAPE Christmas Boxes as a conference-wide mission project. Jarvis will once again participate in filling plastic gift boxes with expressions of Christ’s love to send to the children of Armenia. The Mission Committee members will distribute boxes and a specific list of items needed for each box. Individuals/families will fill one box each and return it to the church.
Manna Bag Ministry: Each day an average of 25 Manna Bags are given to those in need from our front door. Feel free to bring items to the church office or send them directly from your preferred delivery service/retail. We thank you for your generosity.
TOP 10 LIST of items needed:
(Protein foods and water are in high need currently. All items are appreciated!)
* Bottles of water * Easy open cans of Beanie Weenies
* Protein bars * Lance crackers
* Beef sticks * Pop Tarts
* Nutri Grain bars * Fruit cups
* Vienna Sausage * Rice Krispie treats
