Two weeks until the Hope for Appalachia trip! We are in need of cookies for the school staff! If you can bake a few batches and throw them in the freezer and bring them to worship on Sunday, April 14th that would be amazing! If you can’t attend worship but would like to donate cookies, you can contact us and we can arrange a time to get them from you!

Thank you to everyone that helped today! We were able to pack 84 more middle school boys boxes and also sorted the gently used clothes that will be going to the school resource offices to hand out as needed! This was a huge job! Only a couple more weeks until the Hope for Appalachia Virginia Team Trip!

We will be traveling with Hope for Appalachia Virginia Team in just a few weeks. We will be visiting public schools in Kentucky to talk to students and give them a Hope Box that will be filled with toiletries, school supplies and toys. These schools are in some of the poorest counties in the country. So far The Gathering has packed 547 SHOE BOXES! Yay GOD! This is enough for one of the elementary schools we will be visiting! We want to continue to pack boxes for the middle school students. In order to do this we need to order items such as toothpaste, school supplies and toys and we need your help! If you can order items for us or provide financially you will bless a LOT of kids! No amount is too small. These kids need to know they are not forgotten and they are loved! Send us a message if you can help us financially! Checks can be made payable to The Gathering Christian Church and you will receive a tax letter at the end of the year. Message us for mailing address.

The Hope for Appalachia trip is coming up fast! About 5 weeks left to go! Today we organized and counted comfort blankets. These blankets are much needed by the kids in Kentucky. Not only do they provide warmth, as many families are living in their cars, or in houses with no heat, they provide emotional comfort. After our count today we have 249 finished blankets! YAY GOD!!! We have about 40 blankets that need to be put together, material is already squared up. If you would like to help, please send Sandra Lynne Nawrocki a message! Thank you for all you do to support us bringing Hope to the Kids of Appalachia!

Thank you to Gate Logic Security for your donation to buy items for Hope for Appalachia! We were able to make your donation go so far! We visited A.C. Moore in Manassas, as they are going out of business, and purchased 264 items for $172.48, and saved $198.29!! This will make a LOT of Kentucky kids very happy!! Thanks to Shanna Gray and Carl Hawes!
