RAT Projects

i. Vehicle repair request from individual living at the Faith House. The individual needs a car to provide transportation which will aid in his search for a job. Someone has donated a car to the individual that is in need of a new transmission. We agreed to provide $100 for this purpose which will cover the cost of a transmission available at a junk yard. ii. There is a church member in need of assistance in moving. The move date is to be determined. It was agreed to provide assistance as schedules allow. It was suggested that a move on a weekend would allow more of us to help. e. We were reminded that the Men’s Ministry has a “Facebook” page. All are encouraged to visit the page. f.

We agreed to target a date in March to erect the shelving and move the tables as discussed in old business. g.
