Urgent – LBC Mission Project
Everyone is heartbroken at what Western NC is having to endure. LBC has adopted Pine Branch Baptist Church in Bakersville, NC. Preacher Teddy and Saundra are friends with the pastor, Bruce and Wendy Cannon. Their church is a distribution site for items that have been donated. In lieu of physical items at the current time, they have requested financial donations to purchase kerosene heaters, gas stoves, and fuel for both for many community members who are without heat and power, and have been told it may be January before they have these. Preacher Bruce has been in touch with Lowes and Home Depot who are selling kerosene heaters at cost. Our financial donations will be used to purchase what the community members need. There are Mission Envelopes in the pews at church if you would like to donate. Each week we will send a check to Preacher Bruce to purchase more of what his community members are in need of. The needs change week to week, day to day, hour to hour. If you would like to mail a check to us to get to them, our address is Lilesville Baptist Church, PO Box 305, Lilesville, NC 28091.
