1st Quarter 2012—Food Bank at Mt. Calvary, Kannapolis
As Lutheran Women in Mission, they are serving the homeless and needy in their community on the 3rd Saturday of every month as an outreach with a meal of homemade soup and sandwiches and also giving out bags of food. There is a great need in their community for this service as they have many people out of work, out of unemployment funds, losing homes and cannot keep their utilities on or feed their children. The congregation donates non-perishable items but what is donated is not enough to take care of the needy and they are looking for other sources of funds.

2nd Quarter 2012—Braille Center at Immanuel Lutheran Church, Simpsonville, SC
Money will be used to bring the written word of God to blind people all over the world. They “print” and ship 40 books a month and have 15 to 17 volunteers per week involved which includes members and non-members. There is an expense of $500 to $750 for paper supplies per year. It is an ongoing mission project and they would be thankful to receive Mission of the Quarter funds.

Prayers are requested for these outreach projects as they spread the love of Christ to those in need around them. We are the hands and feet of Christ here on earth and we pray that our eyes will be opened to more opportunities to serve Him!
