NEWS - What's happening at McDowell & Headwaters
Shoes to Kenya Project We are continuing to collect shoes -- all kinds of shoes -- new and used, women's, men's, and children's shoes -- around the area, tons of shoes are being collected from closets to send to Kenya, where women who have either themselves contracted AIDS or whose husbands have died from the disease, making them outcasts in their communities, are being trained to repair and sell shoes in order to become self-supporting. So clean out your closets and bring your unwanted shoes to the box in the Fellowship Hall at McDowell Presbyterian any time (the door is always open). Make a difference, two shoes at a time!
Help Area Food Bank Word of Faith Church in Monterey acts as the local distributor of food for the Blue Ridge Food Pantry, serving more than 70 families in our area, most of whose members are children. McDowell and Headwaters collect food to help Word of Faith's vital food ministry. Drop off canned or dry goods at McDowell or Headwaters and folks from Word of Faith will take them to Monterey. Food baskets are in the Narthex (front of the church) at both places and in the Fellowship Hall at McDowell. Please help with this important food ministry. Food Pantries around the country are reporting a drop in donations, attributed to the difficult economic times we're in.
