We Reach Out to God's Children

Albright members build desks for schools in Haiti, volunteering their time and materials. These desks are sent to the Midwest Mission Distribution Center who then ship them to Haiti. The Distribution Center has many projects to provide food, medicine, flood buckets and other supplies to victims of disaster and needy people around the world. This is a mission dear to the hearts of those of us here at Albright. It is one way a small church, like ours, can serve our neighbors around the world in Christ's name.
