Nursing Home Ministry Begins Tomorrow!

Tomorrow night (September 16) is our first opportunity to go love on residents for Jesus at area Retirement/Nursing Homes. We'll be meeting from 6:30-8:00 PM at Brookridge (Atwater) in Apex (312 Lynch St. Apex, NC 27502) and we'd love for you to come and join us! This is a GO project you can be involved in with your whole family!

Here are a few suggested donations that you might like to bring along:

Children can make cards, or any kind of artwork for residents at Atwater.  We also need donations of magazines, sample or full-sized shampoo, toothpaste, lotion, etc., toothbrushes, combs, slippers that are appropriate for those who are not so sure-footed, new or gently-used clothing (including pajamas or nightgowns) for folks who like to relax, new socks, individual snack-sized boxes of raisins, Goldfish crackers, individually-wrapped bite-sized candy bars, Go-Gurt tubes,  items that are easy process without many, or any, teeth.  We need any and every one who would like to see how bringing the Body of Christ to people who don’t have many, if any, visitors can be a blessing! Youth can pray, hand out magazines, candy/treats, lovingly offered clothing or necessities such as soap, sing, paint fingernails (we need to bring our own supplies).

If you have questions please contact Margaret Lawrence! Also, if you'd like to go ahead and put it on your calendar we'll be heading to Rex Rehab in Apex on Thursday, October 21.

We'd love to see you there!
