355. MissionCast – Noisy Offering for Imagine No Malaria – Centralia UMC

HaitiChurches across Missouri are raising money for Imagine No Malaria. Centralia United Methodist Church is doing it the noisy way…at least for part of their pledge to raise $5,000. Actually it is five year old Gracie Banta who has been collecting this noisy offering by herself every Sunday since September. When your MissionCast crew had the joy of worshiping at Centralia a few Sunday’s ago Gracie had a lot of help. It was the 21st Sunday since she started and by that time she had received $882.56 which is 2/3 of what has been raised in the congregation so far. Our hats are off to Gracie, her friends and her generous congregation as they head to their goal of raising $5,000 to save lives in Africa

339. Warm Start – Asbury UMC – St. Louis

Haiti

There is a warm spirit inside Asbury United Methodist Church on Sunday mornings. During the rest of the week the warm spirit moves out on the street in front of the church where a number of different school buses stop to pick up children. For three years the congregation has served a snack for the waiting kids. With juice in warm weather and hot chocolate in cold the children board their busses for school. Rain or shine, hot or cold, beginning at 5:30 am the hearts of church members and school children are warmed each weekday school morning. Pastor Ivan James explains why they do this.

287. Ludhiana CMC Medical Rural Outreach

Haiti

Take a moment to visit the village of Guiana, in Northwest India, and meet some of the children in the local grade school. Also meet Dr. Neeta Kang, head of Innovation, at the Betty Cowan Center for Research and Innovation, which is the research arm of the Ludhiana Christian Medical College and Hospital. And meet Namita Azad a graduate student from Madison, Wisconsin who just arrived in Ludhiana to do two months of research for her thesis.
The village of Guiana is experiencing a higher incidence of cancer than other areas in the state of Punjab. For this reason the village was chosen by the Betty Cowan Center to give free screening and counseling to the women of the village and to educate the grade school children about cancer and what families can do if cancer occurs.
This three minute video will transport you to the village to be with the people for a few minutes. For more information about the Ludhiana Christian Medical College and Hospital or the Betty Cowan Center for Research and Innovation contact Max Marble, Executive Director of the Ludhiana Christian Medical College Board USA at MarbleLCMC@gmail.com
