On June 15, 2014 all of the collected blankets were assembled at morning service and blessed by Pastor Park.  After the Service, church members and friends assisted in packaging the items and loading into Mrs. Carvatt’s van for personal delivery to Spirit Lake Ministries.  Please join our Church family in wishing Shirley Carvatt and her traveling companions a safe trip and return.
