Missions

This month’s mission is Marion Medical Mission, which is a Christian organization founded in 1985 in Marion, IL. Marion’s goal is to provide 100% funding to mission fields in Africa. UNICEF reports 4,000 children worldwide die each day because of unsafe drinking water. The Shallow Well Program provides safe drinking water for $350 each to remote African villages, building over 5,600 since 1991. Other projects include schools, hospitals, and agriculture. For more information, please go to www.marionmedical.org. We have collected $481.68 as of last week.

Next month’s mission , Treasures of Africa Children's Home , is a ministry to AIDS orphans and vulnerable children in East Africa. Located in Moshi, Tanzania at the foot of beautiful Mt. Kilimanjaro, this home provides loving care, nutritious food, and education in a Christian family environment for orphaned and abandoned children. A project of Hidden With Christ Ministries, (www.hiddenwithchrist.com) a registered non-profit organization based in California, this home is supported solely by the donations of compassionate people who have a heart to help change the world...one precious life at a time!
