Family Promise
Mission del Sol is proud to be a part of the Family Promise Network. We are hosting from February 10 - 17. Sign up or call the church office to help out. This is a group of congregations in the Phoenix area who open their doors and hearts to brothers and sisters who are in need of shelter. Each church hosts for a week at a time for overnight lodgings and the evening meal. This project is fueled by the members of the congregation who volunteer their time with a host of chores that provide for the needs of our shelter challenged neighbors. You will look forward to this opportunity every time it happens!Water for Tumbleweed Youth Center
There is a need for water for the homeless youths at the Tumbleweed Youth Center in downtown Tempe. Bring some water to church with you and leave it in the large can by the front door. We all know how important it is to keep hydrated in this desert that we live in, and our less fortunate brothers and sisters are often unable to find safe drinking water. Thanks so much for your contributions!Honduras Outreach Inc.
June 14 - 21 will find you helping Hondurans help themselves! "This is one of the best mission trips I have ever been on" said Bruce McBurney. "Talk about walking the walk, this is an adventure to get out with the people and find out how we all minister to each other". The projects will include construction, sewing and education projects, health and medical work, and Summer Bible School for the children of the village we will be working in. This is a young adult/adult mission trip with a minimum age of 14.Super Flea
Don't forget to start adding to the pile of items that you set aside when you were doing your spring cleaning, the Super Flea market will be here before you know it. This fund raiser is one of the big events at Mission del Sol which never disappoints. Donate your gently used items for this much anticipated garage sale. Folks come from all over the state for this one, really. A bunch of our stuff is in the Four Corners area as we speak. You will want to set aside January 26 as a day to get out and fellowship with the congregation at our Super Flea!East Valley Men's Center Lunches
Everyone pitches in to make the difference in the quality of life in our community. One of those ways is to provide lunches for the men who are staying at the East Valley Men's Center. Once a month Mission del Sol provides sack lunches for the guys that are based at the center. As they clean up and get a job they need food to take with them each day to work or to interviews. One more of the little things that make a great difference in the lives of those who are making a come back, getting back on their feet. The time of fellowship of making the lunches is very rewarding and happens on the second Sunday during the sunday school hour, 9:30 - 10:30 am. Come join us in this fun and helpful project!Meals on Wheels
If you have not had a chance to serve our homebound friends through this mission opportunity you are missing out on one of life's little miracles. Mission del Sol's Deacons head up several days each month for taking meals to those who need a helping hand. Everyone in the congregation is invited to join this project as the need is great and the rewards are even greater! Speak to one of the Deacons for more information.Fair Trade Coffee & Tea
It is not about getting the best product at the cheapest price, though the coffees, teas and chocolates offered through this program are of the finest quality. It is about hard working folks like you and me getting paid a fair wage for their work. A wage to allow them to care for their family, to feed, educate and provide clothes and medical attention to their children. This is an opportunity to help equalize the imbalance between the "rich & poor", to assist brothers and sisters who are trying to find an honest living with dignity. Come on, the coffee is great! You drink it most every Sunday! Pitch in and create a Win-Win situation.
