Due to an increased demand and urgent need, MCC is planning ongoing shipments of emergency supplies to Ukraine and other locations around the world. The MCC inventory of material resources is getting low, and churches are being asked to help contribute toward these important and timely efforts. Reba Place Church is going to be putting together 30+ Relief Kits for MCC to distribute to people in need. The MCC Relief Kits will include specific items that a family of 4 can most use in these emergency situations. Each kit will contain:
4 large bars bath soap (leave in wrapper)
Shampoo (1 or 2 bottles, totaling more than 20 oz; place in resealable plastic bag)
4 large bars laundry soap (such as Fels Naptha®, Sunlight® or Zote® brands)
4 adult-size toothbrushes (in manufacturer’s packaging)
4 new bath towels (medium weight, dark or bright colors; approx. 29 in x 60 in)
2 wide-toothed combs (6–8 in)
1 nail clipper (good quality)
1 box adhesive bandages (minimum 40, assorted)
Sanitary pads (THIN; 1 or 2 packages, minimum 28 pads total)
You can start purchasing these items to donate to our effort! Items can be dropped off at the RPC Meetinghouse on Sunday mornings by the kitchen. RPC will host TWO FAMILY-FRIENDLY EVENTS this summer, one in July and another in August in order to learn about MCC, the importance and joy of sharing God’s gifts with those in need around the world, and actually packing all the kits for delivery. Stay tuned for dates and times!
