Friday, January 29 2010 - FISH DAY

This is a mission program that is designed to help both campus ministry and Crosslines.  The first Sunday night of each month (during the school year) we will cook a homemade dinner for the college students at UMHE house.  In return, the students will be encouraged to do volunteer work at Crosslines.  We are call this a pass-it-on project where one good deed deserves another. 

This project is fully funded by a grant from our John Calvin Presbytery and we are so grateful for their support.  

Anyone interested in cooking their favorite dish for one of the dinners, will be reimbursed for the ingredients out of the UMHE line item budget.

This local Presbyterian residential care program for abandoned, abused and neglected girls, is supported by Covenant members annually through generous Christmas gifts to the girls, providing for their individual needs and Christmas wishes.
