CIRCLES:
Building community and relationships through
Bible study and fellowship is the basis for
the MDPC Women’s Ministry small groups
known as Circles. They meet monthly to study,
share and pray. There are different Circles
available and at different times each month.
Some meet at the church and some meet in member's
homes. Women of all ages are welcome. Circles
do not meet during the summer.
Women’s Fall Circles are beginning the
second week of September. All women are welcome!
The study books are available in the MDPC Bookstore. For more

MOMS' Basic Needs Outreach Drive for 2008 - 2009
This year MDPC MOMS will seek to provide basic needs for the children of Casa de Esperanza de los Niños-the House of Hope for Children-is a safe place for children in crisis due to abuse, neglect, or the effects of HIV/AIDS. Currently 85% of children in placement are in diapers. The children of Casa de Esperanza are in need of more than 300 diapers every day. The donation of diapers and/or diaper wipes helps to defray what would otherwise be a very large expense. At each monthly meeting, MOMS will collect much needed diapers and wipes to donate to the facility. Look for the donation boxes at every MOMS meeting. Thank you for reaching out to support children in need.
For more information, contact Harriet Salem at bellehos@hotmail.com or 713-467-0011.
