Big Picture of Ministry

June 02, 2015

Carolyn Brown from Maranatha Church's Search and Rescue Mission shares at Women's Spring Day in Auburn how her church is ministering to the homeless of Seattle by providing thousands of lunches and warm clothing. Attendees raised more than $5,000 to support this ministry in addition to bringing food and clothing donations. Each attendee also received a small care package to personally share with someone in need.

Washington Conference Pathfinder Fair on April 26 brought together western Washington Pathfinder clubs to showcase their past year with drilling and marching, pinewood derby, and honor presentations. Special events included a swim meet, pushcart races and a homemade musical instrument demonstration.
