Throughout the week, a few Missions
Projects took place throughout the city of New Orleans. Rev. Dwayne Golightly,
General Secretary of the Department on Evangelism and Missions, as a component
of his Summit class, “Teaching the Mission of the CME Church”, small groups of
people took cars to bring food to persons who were in need. Leaving around
lunchtime every day, these conference participants went to minister to the
church congregation out in the New Orleans community.
The Young Adults also collected school supplies and monies
for a project entitled, “Issac’s Closet”, to benefit the J D Meisler Middle
School in New Orleans, LA. Coordinated by Armisha Walker-Harrison, Advisor to
the Connectional Young Adult Ministry, Meisler students, many of whom lost
their belongings in Hurricane Issac received over $2500 in supplies.
