Montevallo Has a Heart for Haiti
Homes, businesses, schools, and lives have been devastated by the earthquakes in Haiti. MFBC is joining in a community wide project to be part of the outpouring of support for the survivors. Funds raised will be deposited in an account at BankTrust and given to the Red Cross.
You will see collection jars around town and donations may be taken to BankTrust as well. Schools, the University and Churches all have events planned. Please call the Chamber of Commerce at 665.1519 or email if you have questions or want to be a part of the effort.

Bunk Bed Build
It was a cold morning January 9 when we met at Doug's shop to build bunk beds. Doug got to the shop early and started a fire and John brought a propane heater and between the two it was comfortable inside. Bill furnished breakfast and after the heaters warmed things up and everyone had a biscuit we got to work.
The bunk beds are distributed by Oak Mountain Mission Ministries along with donated mattresses. We built ten bunk sets last fall and six this time. We expect to build 6-10 every few months as the inventory is distributed.
We all enjoyed the fellowship and doing something that will be of help to others.
Botherhood Breakfast - Jan 2010
The Brotherhood Breakfasts for 2010 got off to a great start Sunday. As always there was a time of fellowship and a meal and this month we had a special guest speaker, Gary Wilkins. By Provision is the ministry of Gary and his wife Elizabeth and their mission is:
To demonstrate Jesus’ love by working with marginalized people in developing countries to equip them for self-sustainable life through accessing, using, and maintaining safe water.
Gary explained their work drilling wells for drinking water in Africa and that their ministry often partners with other Christian efforts, such as drilling a well where another ministry is planting a church.
