Calling all PAX!!

A couple that goes to North Rock Hill Church are deep in the process of adopting a child from Uganda. Here is a LINK to their story. They are raising funds in an effort to cover legal / doc fees, to help pay for their next trip to Uganda to bring their baby back!

Chris and Amanda have hooked up with Both Hands to help raise these funds. (Here is a VIDEO LINK to how Both Hands serves.) And we have been issued a call to serve. The fantastic thing about this fundraising campaign is there are SO many different ways to serve!

What they need now is funding (sponsors) and bodies. The amount of work we are able to accomplish for Ms. Shook is directly tied to the number of volunteers and the materials we are able to get donated. The final project list is being finalized (current – tentative – list is below) but knowing we will have more hands would help drive the to-do’s for the day.

How can you serve?

  • Donate your time (On Sept. 03, 2016)
  • Sponsor a PAX or Donate money (Now!)
  • Donate supplies (Project lists being finalized now)
  • Please share THIS PDF to your close circle of friends. Making this project work is based on serving both the widow and the orphan.

Current projects:

  • Clear the wooded areas of her property (1/2 to 3/4 of an acre)
  • Remove wall paper from a room
  • Possible siding and other house repairs

This opportunity to serve is right in the F3 PAX wheel house! Lots of physical labor, a chance for 2nd F, & the chance to serve an orphan and a widow!

Plus – there’s gonna be free food! Lunch will be provided!

So, mark your calendars for a September 3rd double down!

Truly humbled,
Catfish
