Current Local Mission Projects

(updated 4/12/2010)

Spring Food Drive to Begin
The Mission Committee will be handing out grocery bags to start the Spring food collection after both services on April 11 & April 18. Be sure you get one! The Lord’s Locker and the InterChurch Food Pantry will divide the food. You may return your filled grocery bag to church by Sunday, April 25. As always, your generosity will be a much needed blessing to others.  

Volunteers are needed to sort groceries after the 10:30 service on Sunday, April 25. Contact Maureen Pamachena at 535-8292 or Joyce Frank Orme at 535-9194 with questions.  Thank you!

Habitat For Humanity Home Build
Habitat For Humanity of Johnson County is ready to build another home!  Start those arm exercises to get ready!  Volunteers are needed for this build which is located at 615 Sunset Blvd. in Greenwood.

Mt. Auburn has been asked to recruit a maximum of 10 volunteers for Friday, May 14th (we already have 5 and we need 5 more).  The primary activities will include finishing the exterior trim and start installing exterior siding.  This work does not require skilled knowledge or experience; everyone can help.

There will be two shifts on the 14th (7:30 to 11:30 and 12:15 to 4:15). Volunteers are welcome to work either both shifts, or just one shift. These slots will be filled on a first come first serve basis, so let me know as soon as you know what you want to do.  I'll maintain a master list and coordinate with the Habitat office.

Mt. Auburn has also been asked to feed the workers on this day.  Please support this important mission activity when you are called to participate. The best way to contact me is via email (jlmcbob@sbcglobal.net).  If you need to call, my cell number is 317-412-5932. Thanks for your interest in Habitat!!  Jerry McRoberts 

Lord’s Locker Volunteers Needed
Sewing machine operators are needed at the Lord's Locker in Trafalgar on Monday mornings from 9:00-12:00. The sewing is very simple straight-line stitching which is done on quilts for the homeless, hospitalized veterans and others in need. The sewing room is upstairs, so volunteers must be able to climb stairs. We car-pool from Greenwood. For more info, call Betty Yates 889-0859 or Dorothy Cooper 881-4892.
Toilet Paper Needed for the Lord’s Locker
This is a REMINDER that Mt. Auburn has committed to donate toilet paper each month to The Lord’s Locker. Our commitment is 240 rolls each month.   Please drop off your donations in the coat closet off Fellowship Hall in the tub labeled, “Lord’s Locker.”
