VEGGIES FOR MISSIONS

From the farm field to the mission field, you can support your mission teams by buying bags of Individually Quick Frozen (IQF) vegetables. Pick up an order form and a payment envelope at the Mission Desk, Connect Desk, or in the foyers. Complete the form along with your payment and place in the drop box at the Church office.  You can place your order from April 21 through May 19, 2024.  You will pick up your order at 9:00 am on May 25 in the North Parking Lot of the church.  Your WBC Mission Ministry earns $5.00 per unit sold, you get a well-stocked freezer, and Jesus gets shared on mission – that’s a win, win, win!  Who knew supporting WBC Missions could be so yummy?  For any questions, please call or text Mike Fix at (228) 218-5834 or email missions@wadebaptist.com
