August Missions Focus: Share Our Shoes
Mount Zion’s Missions Team is collecting gently used or new shoes for
the “Share Our Shoes” Ministry in downtown Raleigh. Through these
tough economic times, some parents are finding it hard to provide their
children with this basic need. The shoes will be distributed locally and
worldwide. Please tie together your shoe donation with a rubber band or
ribbon and place on the shelves in the narthex from August 8 through
August 29.
