Food Pounding for the Alabama Baptist Children's Homes
One of our greatest partnerships as Cherokee Baptists is the Ala Baptist Children's Homes.  Our churches have responded overwhelmingly with 100% participation.  Again, we seek that same heart of support for those entrusted to our care through the Children's Homes.  Your pastor & WMU Dir/Contact should have received a letter of the item you are asked to collect.  Please bring food items upstairs to the Association Office by Feb 28, and please check the expiration dates.
