Meals for Mary Ann Tkach

Many of you know the Tkach’s who have faithfully served our church so faithfully and especially our youth. Mary Ann Tkach has breast cancer and just started her chemotherapy treatments this past Monday.
We would like to bless our dear friend with meals as they are walking through this journey.
The Tkach family will need meals for four people. Mary Ann, Mr. Fred, and at least two of her five children will be there most of the time. Her youngest child is 16, so prepare enough to feed four adults. The Tkachs are not particular eaters, and I am sure the teen and young adult children would love dessert. Meals can be delivered between 4 and 5 pm.
If you would like to help us to bless this family, please sign up to take meals here: http://www.takethemameal.com/meals.php?t=CSRE5256 The password is BeStill.
The meal coordinator Kristie Schubert  843-592-0528.
Thank you so much!

CHEC Canceled 2014 – Book Sale Possible

I got an email today from someone inquiring about the details for the conference. It occurred to me that there is nothing on the CBCCA site referencing it this year, so I just wanted to let everyone know that we are still not holding the conference this year:  http://checonference.com/2013/08/26/chec-2014-canceled/.

There are a couple of people working on organizing a used book sale, but this is still not a definite, so I will update here when details become available.

Thanks for all of your support and encouragement for Joyce and I over the past eight months.

FYI
From Charles Cox –
Sponsored by SEN Lee Bright, who is challenging Lindsey Graham for his US Senate seat this year.  This bill is similar to those passed recently in TX and MS, and is being considered in other conservative states.  I just thought that I would pass it on.  Anyhow, check it out here:

Interested in providing a meal?

For any of you who know the Magbees – they are expecting. Melissa gets very ill when she is pregnant and we would like to bless her three times a week with meals she doesn’t have to prepare.

If you are interested in helping out with this – please go to http://www.takethemameal.com/. Go to “magbee,” password is “baby.”

Kristie Schubert is in charge of the meals. Her number is 592-0528.

The meals can be delivered between 4pm and 5pm, to their home at 1005 Ferret’s End (in Battery Shores). They have 2 adults, and 6 children. The children range in age from 2 to 15. They are not particular eaters. They do love Mexican and Italian food, and I’m sure the children would really appreciate dessert.
