Build a Bed
St. Andrew Church volunteers will be going to Lee Street in Hagerstown, Saturday April 11 for a bed Building Day Event at Sleep in Heavenly Peace. Last year 24 volunteers went from St Andrew, along with 54 bedding items and $1300 that were donated. What is Sleep in Heavenly Peace? It is a nonprofit providing hand-made bunk beds to children who don’t have beds of their own. Not only do they deliver these beds to children in need, but they partner with organizations, churches, businesses and individuals to build them at events called Build Days.
Other ways you can help. 1. Donate to the cause. Each bed costs $250 to build and includes all of the bedding. If you want to donate any amount mark a pew envelope Sleep in Heavenly Peace or Mission Committee. 2. Purchase bedding in Twin size: sheets, mattress covers, bedspreads, pillows. A box will be in the narthex for collection in March. 3. Pray for this mission that we get volunteers and donations of bedding.
Thank you for your support. The Mission Committee and the Community Catalyst Outreach Team.
