GGOOD QUESTIONS FROM NMI PRESIDENTS, WITH AN URGENT REQUEST FROM TERESA HODGE
1. URGENT Request: please reply to this newsletter with a good idea of how many boxes of Crisis Care Kits you will bring from your church to assembly. If “0”, let us know that, too. Please don’t bring partial boxes. We need to know how much transportation we need to provide. These CCKs will remain on our district until needed for disaster relief, but we still will need to transport them to the Maryville Church, who has generously agreed to store them for us. If you don’t plan on bringing CCKs, please just reply with your church name and “0”.
2. Question from New President: What do I need to bring to NMI Convention?Offerings:
Deputation offering for Missionary Speaker, Rob North
Deputation offering (to be used for vehicle ) for Joshua & Katie Haun’s “Deputation Baby Shower”
Offering for CCK transportation; if you’re not making CCKs, an offering would be a good substitute!
3. Question from veteran president: Could we have a schedule of District Assembly/ Conventions?
