"People who don't plan ahead, need one." So the old saying goes. Now is the time for planning literacy ministry projects for 2015 and beyond. Join us at Literacy Connexus in making a profound difference in our state this year.

Last Thursday members of the Sand Flat (Cleburne) WMU (Woman's Missionary Union) gathered to learn about building houses and bookcases to improve the lives of others. They brought blankets and books and prayed for missionaries. WMU of TEXAS Executive Director Sandy Wisdom-Martin shared how volunteers have built houses for those living in colonias in Texas for the past four years.  Carolyn Kubiak (in blue) and Glenna Fowler (in red) learned how to build a book case.

Perry Gerbine built ten bookcases to share with families that lack books at home. Perhaps you know of such a family. Come by the Literacy Connexus office to pick one up. Better yet, go to the Literacy Connexus website and build a few. The gracious ladies in this WMU group sent me home with boxes of books to share, too. (Thanks, Nelda). They are in the book bank at Western Hills Baptist Church in Fort Worth waiting to be distributed. Come get some . . .
