Report of CHILDREN’S ALABASTER OFFERING, from NMI President, Amanda Crawford:
“I  just wanted to give you a little update on the total our children collected for Alabaster with our penny wars! 
I announced the winners for the most points Sunday morning and our nursery won the prize for that.  
They will be getting something that will be of use in the nursery, such as cubbies or supplies. 
 Our total for the children’s competition was $600.00!! “
