For your safety and ours, we have closed the front office to people traf-fic until further notice. However, staff will be working remotely and
will be checking email and phone messages regularly.
Food Pantry will still be serving our community. How-ever, a drive-thru process will be used to distribute groceries. There are also different procedures for volunteers who put the groceries together.
Hello,
Heartfelt thanks to all the dedicated folks who keep the Food Pantry running smoothly. Your efforts make life that much more manageable for so many. Take care and stay well!
Best wishes, the Moll Family

The Education ministry is carried out through a PreK-12 school. The Education center provides the opportunity for the children and youth of this community to get a quality education in a loving Christian environment em-powering these young people with the tools that will help them escape the cycle of poverty that has marked their daily life. It is of special note that 95% of graduates continue their education at community college, training programs or universities.
Your donation is urgently needed to support these vital ministries. The Mission is currently facing a financial cri-sis that is making it difficult to continue all the areas of ministries they provide. Please mark your check(memo line) or envelope: Red Bird Mission. Thank you!
—Jean Alderman
Be encouraged that staff is still working and ministry is still tak-ing happening in the life of our church. We are so grateful for
our church family and their generosity as we contin-ue to pay our bills and navigate this unusual time. There are several giving options for your tithes and offerings: US mail, VANCO online giving, or drop off to the front office between 8:30am and 12pm, Monday-Thursday.
SELF -CARE FOR CAREGIVERS
Balancing your efforts to care for the person living with dementia and care for your-self can be difficult. However, the best thing you can do as a caregiver is to take care of yourself by paying attention to your physical, mental and emotional well-being. Here are some ways to do that:
Ask others for emotional support. Ask others for help. Be specific. Ask friends or family to stay with the person while you take a break from
caregiving. Or ask others to run errands or do tasks, such as grocery shopping or mowing the lawn. Allow yourself to accept the help that is offered. Create balance in your life. Do things that bring you peace and comfort. Give yourself time to rest. You’ll be less vulnerable to illness and better able to provide care. Make sure you are getting adequate nutrition and exercise. Keep your medical check-ups. Maintain your friendships. Listen to relaxing or soothing music, take a walk or try deep breathing exercises to help relieve stress. Let yourself enjoy humorous moments.
Keep in mind that taking care of yourself can help you provide the best possible care for the person living with demen-tia.
Ephesians 2:10 For we are God’s handiwork , created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.”

You’ve probably heard on the news that economic impact payments (also called stimulus payments) will be sent out to help Americans during this time of economic slow-down. As with any new law, it takes time to make it happen and there is a lot of true and false information going around. There are also a lot of scams.
If you filed a tax return in 2018 and/or 2019, the payment should be sent automatically. If you had direct deposit of your refund, the IRS should deposit your stimulus payment directly into the same account. IRS plans to have a place on their website to securely change bank information if your bank account has changed or if you didn’t have a direct de-posit. Go to https://www.irs.gov/coronavirus to check for the most up-to-date information.
IF YOU GET SOCIAL SECURITY, PLEASE READ THIS SECTION. If you receive Social Security, you DO NOT need to do any-thing to receive the stimulus payment. It will be sent to you or deposited into the account where your SS is normally deposited. There are many phone scams going around. The FBI is warning not to give out any information on the phone. The scammers will call and tell people that they need to get their Social Security number and bank account number or they won’t get the stimulus payment. THIS IS FALSE. The IRS already has that information and will do the payment automatically. PLEASE DO NOT GIVE OUT ANY INFORMATION TO ANYONE ON THE PHONE.
