Macy's Summit Fair is sponsoring a charity event on August 1. Charitable & nonprofit organizations can sell tickets ($5 a ticket) to shop on August 1 before the store’s official opening. 100% of the ticket proceeds will go to the LSUMC Nicaragua team, to help build 10 homes for Nicaragua families who need our help. The recipient of the ticket receives a 25% off coupon on all purchases that day (subject to a list of exclusions). This is a great time to shop, right before kids head back to school. There are additional monetary incentives for the organizations that sell the most tickets & have the most ticket holders in attendance on August 1. The Nicaragua team will be selling tickets after the church services the weekends of July 11-12 & July 18-19. If you would like a ticket you can also contact Rodney Kirk at rjkirk_1994@hotmail.com or call 366-0105. Please help the Nicaragua team show God’s love to His children in Nicaragua, as we all are His children.
