God is working in and through Gibsontown Ministries!

God is working in and through Gibsontown Ministries!  We are humbled to be used by Him to help supply basic needs as we also share about Christ and how He is the answer, the way, the truth, and the life.

First Baptist Church held VBS at Gibsontown Ministries last week.  The Bible school went very well. We didn't have any professions, but the children were good listeners during story time. The Kindergarten class memorized John 3:16, and recited it at the Thursday evening closing time. We had about 35 enrolled with an average of 24 children daily. Some of that 35 where mothers, and two teens, and four PK. Total enrollment including workers = 60.  To God be the glory!
SCHOOL SUPPLIES DISTRIBUTION:  Monday various churches brought school supplies to First Baptist Church which were packaged in grade appropriate bags.  First Baptist then delivered them to Gibsontown Ministries for distribution on Friday.  We had approximately 220 children pre-register to receive supplies.  Those that pre-registered will be picking up their supplies Friday morning.  Friday afternoon at 1:00 pm the supplies that are left will be available for those that did not pre-register or failed to pick them up. 

RUMMAGE SALE:  If you have children's items such as clothes, toys, etc. or household items you would like to donate for the sale, please take them to Gibsontown Ministries  Friday afternoon 1:00 - 3:00 pm. We are needing more items!! Check out the Rummage Sale tab for a price list.  Pre-pricing is greatly appreciated by our Board of Directors!!  Saturday is the big sale day!  We will be open for business from 7:30 am - noon.  We will have an added treat during the Rummage Sale.  Neal Hartley, Youth Minister at West Colonial Hills Baptist Church will be doing a concert and the youth ministry will have games for the kids. 

August 5 - 8 shoes and socks will be distributed to the 60 kids that pre-registered to receive a pair.  The following week shoes will be available on a first come basis as sizes allow for those that did not pre-register.

Sewing class will start back on Monday, August 5 at 5:00 pm.

Thursday Bible Studies will start back August 8th, 11:00 am and 5:00 pm.  Those attending the Bible studies  are offered a limited supply of diapers or toilet paper.  Baby wipes are available from time to time.
