Missions Trip Contributions
Opportunity to Be a Blessing...

Our DoMissions team will be traveling to the  Appalachia area of northeastern Tennessee - one of the poorest areas in the entire US.  Some of our projects include giving an elderly lady a water supply as well as putting in a sink, toilet, and shower for her; a block party for 150-200 kids, preparing and serving meals to shut-ins, and visiting and ministering at a homeless shelter.

 

We are asking for your help!

We would like to take a package of hygiene products to the residents there.  If you would like to purchase the products, for each package, we need - shampoo/conditioner combo, razors, bar body soap, comb, toothpaste, toothbrush, deodorant.  Please get these things at the Dollar Store!!  Please be sure the products can all fit in a gallon bag.

 

If you would like to contribute financially instead, each package will be $7.50.  (checks payable to DCS)

 

Thank you for any help you can give. Our goal is to take 125 packages with us.  All monies and goods can be turned into Mrs. Price.
