March 3, 2006: A very kind lady
from New Hampshire has donated 36 large baby dolls to the Salem
ministries serving the Appalachian region. It is her wish that we
dress the dolls and give them to children in the impoverished regions
served by Red Bird Missionary Conference and Appalachian Service
Project. Donna Clarke is leading the group of volunteers who are
making the doll clothes and dressing the dolls which sell for $100 in
craft markets. Donna has both kits and patterns for the doll
dresses, bonnets and bloomers. All
dolls must be completed before April 30th, 2006. After
that
we
will be displaying the dolls so they can be named and adopted.
Think of honoring someone special by naming a doll. For $25, you
can name a doll in honor of that favorite girl or lady. Each doll
will leave Salem with a birth certificate. The dolls will be in
the sanctuary on Mother's Day. Please see Donna Clarke, Jennifer
Holland or Laura Morrison for adoption papers. Twelve dolls will
go with the ASP team to West Virginia, and 24 dolls will go to the
Redbird Missionary Conference in Beverly KY.
