Fisher House

Fisher House Foundation, Inc. was founded by Elizabeth and Zachery Fisher in 1990 with a personal donation of more than $20 million to begin the construction of "comfort homes" for families of hospitalized military personnel. "A Fisher House is 'a home away from home' for families of patients receiving medical care at major military and VA medical centers. These homes enable family members to be close to a loved one at the most stressful time-during the hospitalization for unexpected illnesses, diseases or injuries. The Fisher House program ensures families that they are provided with the comforts of home in a supportive and caring environment. There is no charge for any family to stay at a Fisher House."

The Francis Asbury Society
President – Ron Smith

Our communion offering for the month of June went to the Francis Asbury Society (FAS). FAS is a Christian organization whose "sole purpose is to promote the teaching and experience of Christian Holiness as it is revealed in the inerrant Holy Scriptures. To accomplish this purpose, it is committed to sponsoring itinerant ministry, conferences, publishing, and the education of Christian leaders."

FAS seeks to work along with established churches to help maintain the historical, traditional interpretation of the Bible. Major emphasis within the society is with travelling evangelists, a training center, outreach to seminaries, equipping young people with spiritual and educational resources, women‟s ministry, publishing, and International ministry.

Letter from the Norris and Ruth

Spoke to Pastor John a few weeks ago and he asked me to write to you in regards to our mission.  Since our mission requires less money, we thought the Sunday Communion Offerings should go to another mission.  We still receive donations from individuals at St. Paul's, and hope that continues.  If individuals give through the offering, we would like that to continue.  As far as the church budget goes, we would appreciate setting aside $100.00 a month for the mission.  If that is not possible, then whatever you decide will be appreciated.  We want to keep the mission going because people are coming to the Lord. We have been able to not only feed the body (8 food kitchens), but feed the soul.  That's what it's all about.  All receive bibles.  This has always been the Lord's mission, carried out by St. Paul's and us as your representatives.  The Lord has blest our 25 years in Mexico, and we give Him all the praise, honor, and glory.  God Bless you all as you serve Him.

Love in Christ,
Ruth & Norris
