COLLECTING PINWHEEL DONATIONS SUN APR 7 & 14 / $5 PER PINWHEEL

Ralston House is a child advocacy center that helps children and teens who are suspected of being sexually or physically abused.  Pinwheels will be planted all over Jefferson and Adams Counties in April.  Blue pinwheels are a symbol of child abuse prevention awareness across the nation and April is Child Abuse Prevention month.  The Mission Committee will be soliciting funds to sponsor pinwheels after church on April 7 and 14 for $5 each. Checks should be made out to Community of Grace.  Our pinwheel garden should be up and spinning after church on April 14 (anyone wishing to join in the “planting” of the pinwheels is welcome to meet at the sign on Wadsworth. Bring a screwdriver and something to kneel on if you can). The goal is to raise $500 (sponsoring 100 pinwheels, but over the past several years, our generous congregation has far exceeded this goal!)
