Additional Aid Opportunity for Cuban Partner Church

The Alliance of Baptists and affiliated partner churches in Cuba have been able to organize another avenue of providing much needed relief to our Cuban neighbors. Please do not feel any pressure to add to the extreme generosity that Pullen has already offered to First Baptist Matanzas. But if you still feel able and interested in doing more, this shared shipping container offers us a chance to send larger items in addition to new items our recent travelers learned about in May. Some of the items may need several contributors to go in together to make the purchase, and if you’d like to be part of that, please contact Kelly Hutzel for more information. We’ll be collecting items in/outside Chalice’s office through June 28.

Here is the list of items they’ve identified as very helpful in these difficult times:

-Rechargeable fans

-Rechargeable lamps

-Rechargeable bulbs (such as https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08HY1LLPW?ref=clp_hp_h_pc)
