Register for Summer Camp

MP Agents worked hard on their missions in November and December. We provided a meal for a family of 8 in Terrell, raised $300 for Imagine No Malaria during our bake sale, collected over 100 lbs of shoes for people in Africa, and made Gifts From Afar necklaces for kids in China and the Philippians. Way to go kids!!!

Exciting news for our preschool Wednesday night class, on January 18, we will be kicking off our Little MP's group. They will do smaller missions for kids all over the world. Little MP’s shirts will be available to order for $10 each and they will meet monthly as the MP Kids group does. This is going to be an awesome new addition.

Our next outing will be on January 22 at 2:00 in Fellowship Hall. We will be baking brownies and delivering them to our local Firefighters. Hope you can come, and invite a friend.

Grapple 56 is a club for kids in the 5th and 6th grade.
