Buckets give hope


On March 8, the Muskogee Baptist Associated sent 152 filled buckets to “Buckets of Hope.”

The children’ s mission organizations (GAs, RAs and Mission Friends) of First Baptist, Muskogee, worked for a month collecting items and filled the buckets on March 3 and 6.

The approximate cost for each bucket was $45.

First Baptist, Wagoner, contributed 38 buckets; Mountain View of Muskogee had 15; Oldham Memorial of Muskogee had 28; First Baptist, Muskogee, led with 63; and First Baptist, Haskell, had eight.

The project was organized through the Florida Baptist Convention, International Mission Board, Baptist Global Response and Southern Baptist Disaster Relief.
