Please join us in prayer for the safety of those traveling to Brownsville, Texas. The volunteers are driving and delivering the abundance of children’s clothing that were collected over the past couple of weeks. We give thanks to each of you that purchased, donated, sorted, folded, and loaded all of these items that are headed to the Texas/Mexico border on Friday, Sept. 13. In addition to the donated clothing, RIM has received over $4,800 in donations to support this ministry.
Thank you for using your resources to help bless those in need, and answering the call to help our brothers and sisters in need. Watch the Region’s website and social media over the next couple of weeks to see how your donations have made a difference.
We know as Christians and people who call ourselves Disciples of Christ, that we are called to love and serve our neighbor. We have neighbors on our southern border who need us. The environment for our brothers and sisters is not only a humanitarian crisis but a faith crisis. We are limited in what we are allowed to do to help, but there are a couple of actions we can take and the Church must act.
If you feel led to donate to the Commission on Refugees and Immigrant Ministry (RIM). You may give online or mail your donation to the Christian Church in Oklahoma Regional Office located at 301 NW 36th Street, Oklahoma City, OK 73118. Every dollar helps! (Make sure to note: “RIM donation”)
