Cookies for Kairos!


The November 14-18 Kairos weekend is coming up at Nottoway Correctional Center in Burkeville.  The team orchestrating the weekend for about 34 inmates includes Matt Deller, Joe DuRant, and Brad Norris from St. Andrew’s.  This is a very involved undertaking: four all-day Saturday organizing and training sessions plus the Kairos weekend.

My preconceived ideas about prison ministry melted away pretty quickly.  You get a taste and maybe a heaping helping of what servant ministry is like.  Lots and lots of guidelines and rules, all of which must be followed to have a successful weekend.
The end result is most appreciative people and changed lives.  This is the Church spreading the Gospel of Christ in a place that is starving for the Gospel of Christ.
Home baked cookies are a manifestation of the love of the Christian community.  Will you help out?  Please make cookies without sprinkles, nuts or raisins, bag them (one dozen per bag) in clear plastic and bring to the big freezer in the church kitchen.   Thank you!
