Thank You to Grace Chapel!
In November, Paul & Glenna Malkemes participated in Grace Chapel's Global Awareness Week. It was a real joy to reconnect with old and meet new friends at both the Lexington and Wilmington church campuses. We look forward to having the middle school students return to our 2012 Summer Missions Program.
Gift Cards are a Huge Help
One helpful way to support The Boston Project and families in the Talbot-Norfolk Triangle is through gift cards. These gift cards are then used to buy essential products for the ministry or families while taking into consideration actual needs or recent product donations. Good stores: Stop & Shop, Shaws, Hannafords, Walmart, Target, and Staples.
