These bulletin announcements are for your information about resources, items of interest, prayer and praise requests and information. Use your discretion and print only what will be valuable to your congregation. This information will be sent to you only once. Use your judgment as to how often you run the same information in your bulletin. At least twice prior to an event is recommended. Perhaps you could use a calendar of future events in your bulletin and list it in a shortened form after the initial announcement has been made.

Syria Aid via MCC
In the two years since the armed conflict began in Syria, 70,000 people have been killed and 3 million Syrians have fled their homes to seek shelter in other countries or safer areas within Syria. Mennonite Central Committee continues to send them tangible messages of God's love and compassion through milk powder and diapers, peacebuilding and trauma workshops, emergency food, and kits and blankets. Please hold all who have been affected by this crisis in your prayers. You also can help MCC continue and increase its emergency response in Syria and with Syrian refugees living in Jordan and Lebanon by donating to the Middle East crisis fund. You may donate online, mcc.org/middleeastcrisis or by calling 1-888-563-4676. Click Here for a printable bulletin insert. |
