100-Day HEART Program

"Everywhere we look we see crazy, blatantly sinful things happening all around us. We know the problem is sin. We have the cure for sin at our fingertips in God's Holy Word. We can speak, testify, or send the Bible anywhere around the world. Is it worth $1.53 a day for 100 days?" asks Scripture Funds Coordinator DoRetta Cline.


You can help! Mail donations to Secretary-Treasurer Carol Lea Brown, 819 S Detroit Street, Xenia, OH 45385-5509 no later than May 3, or have your camp president present it at the Presidents Breakfast at the Ohio State Convention on May 4.
