Presbyterian Women - Mission Possible
September 4, 2008

Mission Possible was the theme of the Presbyterian Women's monthly gathering on September 4, 2008.

Attendees brought sack lunches and enjoyed fellowship in Stewart Hall while completing the hands-on mission projects of filling 64 School Kits AND 81 Health Kits. 

To the right are just some of the School Kits completed that day.

These have all been mailed to CHURCH WORLD SERVICE service annex in New Windsor, MD, and will be sent to disaster areas here at home or abroad.  All items in the kits were donated by the women of our church.

Gift of the Heart Health Kits each include one hand towel, one wash cloth, one comb, one metal nail file, one toothbrush, six band-aides, one bar of soap (bath size), and one tube toothpaste (4-7oz). Each completed kit is packed in an individual ziplock bag.

School Kits each include one pair of blunt scissors, pads or notebooks of ruled paper (approximately 8 1/2 x 11 inches containing 150-200 sheets of paper), one 30 centimeter ruler (12 inches), one pencil sharpener, six new pencils with erasers, one large eraser, twelve sheets of colored construction paper, one box of 24 crayons, and one cloth bag, approximately 12 x 14 inches, with cloth handles.

Our thanks to Phyllis Josephson for the photos and information!
