Through our Benevolence Center, we are able to distribute free clothing to 500 families a month. Also, our three Mission Mart thrift stores sell clothing at low cost to help fund our programs. Even with these ways of providing clothing, we still are blessed to have left over good articles of clothing.
Because the Lord has blessed us, we, in turn, bless other ministries, sometimes in far away places. Over the years, we have sent many articles of clothing to countries in Africa and South America. Recently, we had a chance to partner with a ministry that works with the Navaho.
Missionaries Marvin & Chrisanne Burr sent us the photo you see above of kids who benefited from the clothing.
They write, "It would have warmed your hearts if you would have seen the ladies hurrying to get through and take the clothes. These economic times are hurting everyone. They are very grateful for the clothes and hope more will come in the future. Your generosity has helped us build a strong bridge with many Navaho people. We are there to encourage them. They, in turn, will minister to their own people in ways we cannot."
Thanks to the Burrs for their ministry and to you for supporting it through the Mission.
