We hope you are having a good week so far! Carter Stewart will continue teaching this Sunday. Below are class announcements concerning a new hospitality initiative for Foundations, Missions Week and prayer requests. See you Sunday!
HOSPITALLITY: Introducing "Foundations Cares"
Your servant team is excited to announce a new hospitality project for our class! It's called Foundations Cares. We will begin collecting frozen casseroles, soups, other things that freeze well and keeping them in the freezers of Karon Staples, Cary Murray, and Katherine Turnage. These frozen meals will be used to help Foundations members who perhaps have a lot on their plates right now with family, illness, etc and could use an extra meal or two in their freezers! We will continue to sign up for meals for new babies and other Foundations events; we just thought it would be great to expand this ministry in new ways!
How to help? To make it easy for everyone we will have three food drop off points:
Cary Murray
1735 Kensington Road
Homewood
205-213-8413
Karon Staples
3810 Montevallo Rd
Crestline
205-567-3302
Katherine Turnage
1905 Southwood Road
Vestavia
205-306-1451
With the majority of our class living in these areas, we hope that one of these homes will be convenient for you. Please text or call any of us above and let us know that you will be dropping off your meal. Please bring your food in a disposable pan wrapped in aluminum foil. On the foil, please write what your meal is, the date and cooking instructions. Your meal can be homemade or store bought. Ashley Mac's, Edgewood Catering and Dish N Out have some wonderful frozen dinners that you can pick up as well. Ingram Link and Traci Parker also have a weekly dinner service where you can order meals. For more information you can email Traci at peauparker@bellsouth.net. Our hope is that this will be an ongoing ministry so whenever you have a chance to double a recipe or grab a frozen meal from a store, please do so!
We hope that you will be as excited about this initiative as we are. If you or someone you know could benefit from Foundations Cares, please let myself, Karon or Cary know. Please feel free to email me with any questions. Thanks in advance for your support!

MISSIONS:
Missions Week, February 24-29, is coming up! Roddy and Katherine Taylor, our Missions Coordinators, will open up their home on Tuesday, February 28th at 6:30 p.m. for our class to meet and have dessert with two guest missionaries, Tim and Theresa Simpson (East West Ministries - Middle East/Russia) and John and Samantha Hudson (100 Fold - Montana). So, save the date of Tuesday, Feb 28! Their address is 1868 Southwood Road in Vestavia. Childcare provided! Contact Laura at ltucker@covpres.com. Stay tuned for more details in the next couple of weeks. A sign up sheet will be going around the class this week. If you know that you would like to attend and will not be here to sign up this Sunday, please contact the Taylors (rntaylor@southernco.com or mctaylor01@bellsouth.ncom). ALSO, there are several other great opportunities for Missions Week outlined in the Missions Folder that will go around in class, so be on the lookout for that. Thanks!
