Antique Style Photos

We’re sorry, but we were unable to make our target quota and had to cancel this event.

The Christian Education Ministry Team is sponsoring a photo fundraiser of antique type photos, in sepia finish for youth to help finance the purchase of a new Church van. Just think what a neat Mother’s Day gift this would be! However, we are approximately 15 certificates away from our goal of 60. If we do not reach our minimum number of bookings we will have to cancel. Please pass the word that we need to reach that goal by next Monday, April 19^th. Please contact co-workers, family members, neighbors, etc. to see if they would like to buy a certificate. Here’s the simple process:

1) Purchase a certificate.

2) Make an appointment for photos to be taken on April 23 or 24 from either Vicki Jones or Diana Terry.

3) Come back on May 4 to view your pictures.

Several individuals are selling the certificates. See Gail Fox, Kristi Moxley, Heather Matthias, Mandi Wells, Stacie Dougherty, Michelle and Maizey Lang, Vicki Jones or Debra Mikkelson. You can earn free packages of pictures if you sell 10 to 15 certificates and the individuals come to their scheduled appointment time. If you would like more information, or would like to sell certificates and earn free pictures, contact Vicki Jones 785-988-4214 (home) or 785-226-3995 (cell).
