Chapel Hill Craft Show Mission Projects The profits generated from our Arts and Crafts Show go to support Chapel Hill Mission Projects. Our accumulative donations through the past 29 years have totaled approximately $410,000.00. God has truly blessed our congregation and this Show. We are thankful for this success. We are also thankful for all the volunteers from our church and community that donate time, materials and talents in order to keep our expenses at a minimum. Missions and Agencies The 2008 profits were distributed to the following missionaries, projects and agencies:
Conference Projects Harbor Harvest Urban Ministries Benton Harbor, MI
PET (Personal Energy Transportation) Vechicles Delivery of PETS to a Village near Lusaka
The photos (above) show the delivery of a child size PET to 8 year old Marriot and his mother. Marriot was anxious to begin using his PET and he will soon gain enough upper body strength to move about on his own. His mother said that he wants very badly to be able to go to school. Having the PET provides him the freedom of mobility that will allow him to realize that dream. The PET is also a symbol to the recipients of God's love for them.
They are no longer seen by themselves or members of their community as cursed; they are loved by God! Our financial support and prayers make this possible. It will be wonderful to see what Marriot does with his life.
Please keep him and his mother in your prayers. Consider supporting and praying for this mission project. To learn more about PET, click here: http://www.gbgm-umc.org/newlife-zambia/pet_ministry.htm |
