Haiti Mission Fundraisers!
Our first Haitian Mission Team Zoom Trivia Night Fundraiser was a wonderful success. Seventeen people gathered virtually and we had a great time. We also raised $300 for Haitian schools! We have planned two more Trivia Nights. The first will be on April 9. We’ll open the zoom at 7:30pm and trivia will begin at 8:00pm. The second Trivia Night is designed especially for KIDS and their families. It will be on April 16. The Zoom will open at 6:30pm and trivia at 7pm. Sounds fun? Here is how it works: 1. Send an email to missions@fumcmelrose.com request the Zoom link2. Teams may have up to 6 people. Team members can join the zoom from different locations.3. When you log on, rename yourself to your team name with your own name afterwards, such as: Trivia Stars – Sally. (It will help to have a team name chosen before you log on!)We suggest a donation of $5 per person to play and 100% of the proceeds will go directly to one of six schools in L’Asile, Haiti. Donations may be made before, during, or after trivia via gofundme at https://charity.gofundme.com/o/en/campaign/haiti-schools-in-lasileHaiti Mission Auction The Mission team is organizing a virtual silent auction May 9-16. You will be sent a link and will be able to go in and bid on items. The winning bids will be announced on May 16. We have secured several gift certificates from area restaurants and people have donated some great items. We are excited about the auction. However, we are looking for more items to be donated for the auction. If you have something that you would like to donate (a gift basket, a gift certificate, etc) please let Pastor Travis know, reverendtravis@gmail.com |
