  ANNOUNCEMENTS

 January Calling Team:  Please call Tod V and Brian W with any special concerns or requests.

January Mission of the Month: The City Rescue Mission is a Christian ministry that provides shelter to 140 women, children, and men every night and serves about 100,000 meals each year. The Rescue Mission of Lansing will be opening a new center called "The Outreach" on January 21.  This center is for men and women who struggle in a traditional shelter due to addiction or mental illness issues. Please consider what you can give to this mission today, and keep in mind whether you would like your donations to go to their general fund, to the new Outreach mission, or if you would like it split between the two. If you do have a preference, please see Julie L.
