UMCOR (United Methodist Church Committee on Relief) health kit assembly


By now you have likely seen the pictures/video of the devastation and suffering the Haitian people have been going through since an earthquake hit there last week. Crossroads will be helping to respond to needs there by assembling health kits in the Next Gen building next Sat. January 23rd from 9am to noon. The following new or gently used items are needed:

hand towels (15" x 25" up to 17" x 27" - no kitchen towels)
washcloths
large and sturdy combs (not pocket-sized)
nail file or fingernail clippers (no emery boards or toenail clippers)
3 oz or larger bar of bath soap
toothbrush (new only - in original wrapper, no child-size brushes)
adhesive bandages (Band Aids)
gallon size resealable bags
Please bring with you on Sat. or if you can not come then leave items in the mission corner (by the front office).

If you are able, please come and help.
