Silent Images To volunteer with silent images and the work they do regarding social justice click here Mercy and Justice: Opportunities to Serve *PRO-LIFE NEED: There is a wonderful ministry called Truth Mercy
& Life that is led by Sheryl Chandler. She regularly goes to the
abortion mill to counsel with women who are planning to abort their
babies. Often God allows her to reach some & these women decide to
continue their pregnancy. They usually give her their names and numbers
& she stays in touch with them until their babies are born. When
that occurs she presents them with a "baby shower" of clothes, toys
& various baby necessities. Her problem now is storage. As she
continues to receive many donations, some of which have come from our
own Uptown folks, she is finding that her extra space in her garage is
not sufficient. We are wondering if there is anyone or anyone that you
know of that has some space they are not using & would like to
allow her to store these items. She is looking for something that is
the size of a single-car garage. If you can help or know someone else
who can help please contact Chris Yost at 704-531-2697. Lois Lodge Donate bathroom tissue, paper towels, laundry detergent and dryer sheets, gallon size zip lock bags, funds designated to pay for newsletters and purchase stationary/thank you cards so that Lois Lodge can continue to keep ministry friends aware of what is happening with their ministry to young women in need.
