Yesterday was the Kick Off at the Maple Leaf Apartments in Brick NJ. Three churches came together to bless this community and its children with a time of homework and tutoring, activities & games and a meal.
A BIG thank you to the folks from Remedy, True Life and Calvary Pres for being a part of this special day. There were 21 children in grades 1st through 8th who came to the Clubhouse with homework in hand. Along with the 20+ volunteers who came out, we had a very lively atmosphere inside and outside the Clubhouse. Children were treated to a light dinner and dessert while they worked to complete their homework with some of our volunteers. Others were ready to engage in a variety of activities ranging from ‘team building’ to coloring & sketching and board games. While still others went outside to throw around a football.
We will be at the Clubhouse every Tuesday beginning again in two weeks (after spring break). And this summer a mission team from Pitman, NJ will join in the efforts by providing a week long VBS for the kids of Maple Leaf.
Please join us in praying for this community and for the opportunity we will have to share the Gospel with them.
If you would like to get involved, please let us know!
Just One Drop,
Pam
