Subject: Hygiene Kits for Disaster Assistance

In light of the recent earthquakes in Haiti and Chile, Chapel in the Pines Presbyterian Church will join churches across America to create Gift of the Heart hygiene kits.

Presbyterian Disaster Assistance, an emergency and refugee program of the Presbyterian Church U.S.A., is working with Church World Service to provide these needed essentials. Kits are kept on hand to enable quick movement of the supplies in the wake of a national or international crisis.  Current supplies have been depleted. The national group creates baby, cleaning and school supplies kits as well.

Subject: FREE LUNCH!!!!!!

That’s right free lunch every Thursday at St. Bartholomew’s from noon to 1pm. This is a community lunch and all are welcome! I’ve been volunteering for some time now and I just love seeing people of all ages and all walks of life coming together and sharing and eating! Karen Ladd had a vision and it has grown!  It is really important in these times that our community comes together to take care of their own. And this community has certainly  stepped up to the plate (literally!!)Almost all our food is donated so you never know what’s cooking but it’s guaranteed to be good with Karen and Micky Hester at the wheel! We have countless gardeners and home cooks who have donated cabbages, beans, cakes, and casseroles. Harry Horton come and plays the piano. Larry Williams makes sure we have sharp knives and all the help we need in the kitchen. Thanks to all the community volunteers who chop,slice,dice,bake,boil,

Subject: Changes in Project Proud Familie’s Support Group

Hello Everybody,
I just wanted to post some recent changes to our support group that were made to support all of Chatham County.
1. We are now located at Joy Baptist Church located @ midway between Pittsboro and Siler City every third Tuesday from 6:30-8pm. Thank you Joy Baptist for this generous allowing us to gather here!! This should give all persons the ability to more easily access this fun, supportive group.
2. Jeannie Roscoe and Jeanette Mitchum will be the facilitators for this group starting the 20th when our next meeting will be held. These ladies bring a wealth of experience, education and thus knowledge to the group. You will be delighted with the what they have to offer and what you get out of this.

Subject: Baptist Association: No Position on Referendum

I was surprised (and disappointed) see the post by Randy Voller, announcing that an organization called “Sandy Creek Baptist Association Against Liquor by the Drink” had registered as a political action group to oppose the mixed beverage referendum – clearly implying that the large association of local Baptist churches had voted in some way to become involved in the political campaign.
