Do you remember last year’s Missional Challenge from the Northern Illinois Conference, for our church family to assemble 3 Emergency Cleanup Buckets for Church World Services? To date, the Midwest Mission Distribution Center has delivered 1,656 cleaning buckets with anticipated requests for many more to communities in both IL and MO. This was made possible thanks to the generosity of the churches at last year’s Northern Illinois Annual Conference, where 100’s of buckets and supplies were donated. Please keep our neighbors in central and downstate Illinois, as well as Missouri in your prayers as they deal with the flooding.
