Church Dinners as
Habitat
Fund-Raisers |
A regular Wednesday night fellowship dinner was
turned into a Habitat fund-raiser at University Baptist Church in
early December. Some members brought chili with varying degrees of
heat while others furnished crackers, beans, cheese, chips, and
desserts. People donated money for the meal, raising $500 which will
pay for the insulation for a new house.
Marguerite Guinn and the Prepared Meal committee furnished the
organizational power behind this event. For help in setting up such
a dinner at your church, call Marguerite at the Habitat number:
214-0434.

We have two volunteer opportunities that relate
to fund-raising projects that we want to let you know
about.
NUMBER 1: For a number of years now a
group of volunteers have made the "beanies" that OBU freshmen wear
when school begins in the fall and OBU "pays" Habitat for Humanity
of Shawnee for doing this. If you are interested in helping
with this project, bring your sewing machine and iron (if you have
them) and come to University Baptist Church at any of the following
times to help with this great fund-raising opportunity.
Each Wednesday from 6:30 to 8:30 PM beginning on June 18 and
going through July 30 Two Saturdays from 9:00 to 11:30 AM on June
21 and July 12. For more information on this project, contact
Jamie Barrick at tjbarrick@aol.com or
273-2062 (home) or 273-7810 (work) NUMBER 2: Each year
OBU's Division of Music and St. Gregory's Mabee Wellness Center hold
charity bike races and running events. They are joining forces
September 27 and 28, 2008 to co-sponsor a weekend of bicycle tours,
running events and Oklahoma's only officially-sanctioned bicycle
stage race - the proceeds of which will benefit Habitat for Humanity
of Shawnee! We will need volunteers to help stage these events
and participants to make them successful. If you are
interested in helping with this event in any way, contact Thresa
Swadley or Jim Vernon at 878-2305 or music@okbu.edu for more
information.
