-
to recommend individual and/or congregational action on these issues
-
to promote the Mission and Service Fund within the congregation
-
to seek ways of co-operation with social agencies to meet the needs in our community.

GFORCE SPONSORSHIP
GFORCe3’s second Afghan family, who fled Afghanistan over 2 years ago to Pakistan, arrived late Monday night. The 73-year-old father, one of his twin 29-year-old sons and his 26-year-old daughter all arrived safely and tired from their 24+ hour trip. They have begun to settle in as they await the arrival of the second twin son. Thank you for all your prayers and support over the past 2.5 years.
