I CARE
|
| How Do I Show Them, "I Care"? |
|
Even as you read this, MercyWorks is distributing "I Care Packs" to children like Ajoung and her sister containing clothing for their naked bodies, shoes for their bare feet and necessary hygiene items. We are rallying people across the nation to provide thousands more "I Care Packs" to Sudan as soon as possible.
Prepare personal "I Care Packs" in your Sunday Schools or small groups. Many churches are responding as a VBS project for children or outreach project for youth groups.
AND/OR
Provide money for Mercy Works to purchase "I Care Packs". Checks may be made to YWAM for the suggested amount of $40 per pack.

How It Works |
 |
- Prepare an I Care Pack with items from the Gift List
- Use a plastic container with a lid such as a 12 quart "Sterilite box, available at most Wal-Marts. Please do not overstff the box. Prepare your I Care Pack for a boy or girl aged 2 - 14. Label accordingly. Example: Boy - age 9. Please include a note and photo of yourself. To know that someone in America cares and is praying for them is as precious as the needed items.
- Enclose a $10 donation* and send the package to:
Mercy Works c/o YWAM Tyler
20131 FM 16W
Lindale, TX 75771
- Do NOT Include:
Breakable items, perishable items or candy, liquids of any kind (shampoo, lotion, etc.), toy guns, knives or other war-related toys, medicines or supplements of any kind.

* The $10 only covers partial shipping to Sudan. Other funds are needed for Bibles and medical supplies. Make checks payable to YWAM, enclose in an envelope, and place it on top of the gift items.
