Missio Dei Church
Weekly Update for the Week of February 21



Leadership Community Reminder
Ministry Leaders:

The February Leadership Community is coming up this Saturday. Remember that this month, Leadership community will be conducted only with the ministry leaders.  We are implementing  an every other month approach with the "general public" when it comes to Leadership Community so that ensure that the Ministry Leaders are cared for, have their questions answered, are on the right track when it comes to the mission and vision of the church, and so they can lead the church effectively!


Everyone else, mark  your calendars early.  The next open Leadership Community will be Saturday, March 20, from 9:00-11:00 am.
Nigeria Missions Meeting
On Sunday, March 7th Partners in Ministry will have a brief meeting after corporate worship concerning our Missions trip to Nigeria in the summer of 2011. This meeting is for anyone interested in supporting this trip whether through fund raising or any other activity. You don't have to go to Nigeria to support this trip.  First and foremost, we need some creative fund raising ideas and supporters to help carry out those ideas.

We need your help, so please come with a few fund raising strategies. Again, everyone and anyone is welcomed.
Donate Your Ink Cartridges
The children's ministry - Kid's Crossing - is asking for your help.  We want all your old and used up ink cartridges to turn in to purchase new tables and chairs for the kids.  Just drop your old ink cartridges into the marked trash can at the back of church.  For more info please contact Andy Raatjes.
