Linway Missions
Operation Christmas Child by Samaritan's Purse
Help us fill shoeboxes with gifts for children in need all over the world, and to share the good news of Jesus Christ. Linway is collecting shoeboxes from October 18th to November 15th. Please help by taking a box, fill it with items, and return to Linway by November 15th. A list of suggested items is in the box. If you are unable to pack a whole box, consider making a monetary donation with check payable to Linway and the missions committee will purchase supplies to fill the box. Pray that each shoebox from Linway makes a difference in a child's life and helps them to develop a relationship with our Lord. For more information, visit the Operation Christmas Child Frequently Asked Questions page.

John Neba School in Cameroon, Africa
The mission project begun in Cameroon, Africa, was a dream of the Reverend Martha Neba-Mbandi. Martha interned here at our church in 2006–2007, as a candidate for ordination in the Presbyterian Church. This dream, now the John Neba International Ministries (JNIM), has now become a reality for her and those organizations that have been called by our Lord to help support her and this dream. Please watch the video to see the fruits of her commitment to our Lord.
