Bringing troops home

Friday, December 7, 2007

THE READING United Methodist Women are laying down a challenge to the women’s groups from other area churches.

Governor Sebelius has asked the people in the state of Kansas to donate to a fund to bring the Kansas National Guard troops home for the Christmas holidays. These troops are in Texas being trained before leaving for the

war zones.

Our little group is sending a check for $200 to put these soldiers in their family homes to celebrate the birth of the Christ child.

Is this community, which is known for Veteran’s Day, willing to step forward for our active troops, also? We hope so.
