Don’t
ever spend
Another nickel!
St. Andrew Presbyterian Church has pledged to support Compassion
International by committing ourselves to Nabaje Afusa from
Uganda
. She is our symbol of those around the world who are less fortunate.
Our other symbol is the nickel.
Let all your nickels represent the needs of those who hunger and thirst in our
world. Save them and bring them to the church and place them in the barrel
with Nabaje’s picture on it.
Through Compassion International’s Child Support program, your gifts
will feed, clothe, educate and provide medical care for this little girl. Nickels
only!
Don’t ever spend another nickel. Let them be a symbol of all that God has
given to you, and all that we have to share with those in need. If you are
interested in supporting a child through this organization, please speak with
Rev. Mark.
