Calling ALL friends and family back in the USA! We are desperately in need of your help for a blanket drive! Peru is creeping into winter and it is getting chilly. Our friends in Villa Maria who live on the side of a mountain in homes that are not adequate to keep warm, are in great need of some blankets fast. Team Lima is launching it’s first annual Frazalatera (blanket drive) in order to help the families and especially those kids keep warm during the next few months.
The deadline to raise $1000 is June 15th! We know this is fast but these people are cold, enough said. You can send your tax-deductible checks made out to The Crossing Church (with “Frazaletera” or “Blanket Drive” in the memo line) at the following address:
The Crossing Church
Attn: Missions / Frazalatera
10815 Bentsen Palm
San Antonio, TX 78254-5365
Also, check out the Frazalatera Facebook page.
It’s hard to express in writing or for that matter, on a blog how crucial this is but hopefully we will be able t0 show you in pictures after we deliver the blankets and you are able to see their faces. We will have a short video of Villa Maria going up in the next few days to help you picture the conditions in which these people live in but we wanted to go ahead and start our drive today to get your minds, hearts and hopefully your wallets spinning
