The Biblical Feast
was a success!
Thanks to two groups that came together;
the Olive Branch Chapter of the Pilgrims
of Ibillin and Friends across the Generations,
through combined hard-working committee
members, volunteers, sponsors, church staff,
and new friends, the results provided an
evening of grand entertainment, delicious
foods, and an awareness of one of this church's
missions, Mar
Elias Schools in the Holy Land. The
generosity of so many who bought tickets
and gave to this mission additional donations
will provide 40 new desks for the children,
2 church pews, 1 computer, 1 teacher's desk
and 1 set of class room text books. There
is still an opportunity for you to have
a desk contributed in your name. The Olive
Branch will match your $75 contribution
with $25 for a desk through June 30th. Please
pick up a form in the Church office. Bless
all of you for your dedication to this mission;
and maybe, just maybe Peace will begin on
the top of your school desk.
