June Outreach

Please see details for the June Outreach collection. NRPC Outreach committee is requesting folks to purchase and bring sketchbooks for the art classes at River Bend Middle School. A note from the art teacher is below to read more details. Donations can be dropped off Folks can bring the sketchbooks to the FMB Sundays after church until noon and on Tuesday June 14th and 28th, between 10 and 11:30.

Strathmore (25-508 STR-025-508 100 Sheet Sketch Pad, 8.875 by 11", 8.5"x11", White : Arts, Crafts & Sewing Sketchbook Link


Hello North Raleigh Presbyterian folks,
 
Thank you so much for supporting the incoming group of River Bend Middle School art students!
 
River Bend Middle School is a Title 1 (low income) public school that is part of the Wake County Public School System (WCPSS). We are located in North Raleigh near the intersection on 540 and Louisburg Road. I began teaching here this past fall and spent the first 6 weeks trying to get my students to purchase sketchbooks, before coming to the conclusion that most of my students' families were unable to accomplish this task.  
 
For art class, we use sketchbooks daily. Any blank book (paper without lines) that is 8.5 x 11 inches (normal paper size) or 9 x 12 is welcome! The spiral bound type are best. We do NOT need the thicker (more expensive) paper or the more expensive type of sketchbook that has a binding like a hard cover book. 
 
Spiral bound sketch books are ideal (usually 7-9 dollars each) see above.
 
On behalf of my students, and from the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU!!

Afghan Family Update

Update on Welcoming Afghan Family
 
Celebration!
     This week our church helped an Afghan couple move into their first home in America. We supplied all the necessities for a home - dishes, a couch, a bed, a kitchen table and chairs, pots and pans, dish soap, towels, etc. We stocked up their refrigerator and their pantry. Since the couple is expecting their first child, our church bought them a crib. Two beautiful meals were delivered to the couple for their first nights in their new home. This week, thanks to a generous donation, our family now has a washer and dryer!  Our Afghan family is so grateful for all of the things that have been generously given to them.  As we left for the evening, the family was bursting with enthusiasm over their first home in America.
 
Needs
      The couple needs to buy a used car that is reliable. Right now, they take an uber to work, grocery store, and to doctor appointments.  If anyone knows of a used car that can be donated or is for sale, please contact Becky Pyrch at beckypyrch@gmail.com or Janet Livengood at janetblivengood77@gmail.com.  
 
Further Assistance Needed
    Finally, we will be helping this refugee family adjust to life in America. The husband has a job, but needs a car to get back and forth to work. They need help enrolling in ESL classes, getting a driver's license, learning how to pay bills, setting a budget for expenses and getting to doctor's appointments. We have already helped them negotiate a contract for internet service and assisted them with banking questions.  North Raleigh Presbyterian Church plans to continue to help our Afghan friends with these challenges.  If you would like to participate in this effort, email beckypyrch@gmail.com.
