MITES
Our 2012 goal for collection of Mites is $600.00 to be collected by March 15, 2012. We would like to reach our goal and would appreciate everyone's participation to do this. You may give your Mites to our LWML treasurer, MK Frushour, or drop them in the large Mite box at the rear of the church. Remember our Mites help spread the Gospel throughout our state, our Nation and the World.
Mites are contributions of small change.
