Thanks to an exciting new partnership between 3MC, the NCC Mission Team, and NCC Disaster Response Committee, the small 3MC warehouse has become the staging area for the assembly, storage, and distribution of flood buckets, health kits, school kits, sewing kits, and AGAPE Christmas boxes. Each of the Districts has sent representatives to the Mission Warehouse on designated workdays this year to put together various types of kits to prepare for shipment to sites throughout NC, the US, and around the world. In addition to working on a mission project together, participants will have a chance to see the revitalized 3MC facility and learn more about volunteer opportunities at the 3MC site.
The current schedule for the remainder of 2014 is:
