Positive Alternatives Open house in Bad Axe is on May 12th from 3-6 pm. Please drop in to show your support. Another way to show your support is to participate in the Baby Bottle Boomerang fundraiser that Pigeon River sponsors. From Mother's Day to Father's Day we encourage you to pick up a baby bottle from the table in the Fellowship Hall and fill it with change and dollar bills. Return it full. This will provide them with funds to continue their ministry to mothers with baby's at risk in our community.
Mission 101 There are envelopes in the Fellowship Room to support missions. Take an envelope and donate the amount listed on the front (for example, the person who chooses envelope #5 will donate 5 dollars or more). This system allows all church members and ages to participate is a way that works for them. Please return your envelopes by Sunday, May 21st so that we can send the money to RI in one check.
