Pastor Wayne shared with us two websites that offer ways of discovering and applying our Spiritual Gifts.  Here they are:

www.MySpiritualGifts.com      and     www.gifts.churchgrowth.org

You guessed right:  Pastor Wayne will be the Preacher tonight at our Community Lenten Service at 6:30 p.m.,  at Easton Chapel GMC, 1530 Easton Street NE. Canton, OH 44721. Pastor Wayne hopes to have a great turn-out from Fairhope Faith!  Thank you for being his Amen Corner!! Then, NEXT Sunday will be our Final service in this wonderful series:  and WE get to host our GMC sisters and brothers!  So, please be sure to be in attendance then, too!

First-aid supplies for the homeless in Canton.  The ministry of H.O.T. (Homeless Outreach Team) helps the homeless that would otherwise not get shelter, because all people deserve to be treated with dignity and respect.  So, this Spring, per their request, our church is collecting first-aid supplies.  Our sewing ladies have created individual cloth bags for each homeless person, that we will place the supplies in.  We are collecting:  all sizes band-aids, ointment, adhesive tape, 1st-aid pads, small package disinfectant wipes, nail clippers, soap and wash cloth in baggy, hard candy, and anything else you may think of . Thank you for your help.
