Thank you so much to everyone that helped with our first Clothing Closet Open House on May 15th. We had more clothes donated that we ever hoped and were just as blessed by the amount of volunteer help we received to sort, organize and prepare for the event. During the course of the Open House we were able to give clothing to at least 40 people and were able to talk with and pray for several of those that stopped in.

We are already planning the next open house and look forward to being a blessing to even more families in the Burlington community. If you have clothes you would donate or need more information please call the church office at 609-531-0816 or email abie@cityofrefugefellowship.org.

We have the great privilege of hosting Angela Bale, missionary in Durban, South Africa this weekend. We will be having an informal breakfast on Saturday at 10:00 am at 18 East Broad Street; an evening service on Saturday at 7:00 at St. Mary Street United Methodist Church, 483 St. Mary Street and then Angela will be speaking at our Sunday service at 10:00 AM. I believe that this weekend is a time in which God desires to impart His Spirit, His mission and His passion for the lost into our community, that God is going to call people, young and old, to missions service both here in Burlington and abroad and that He is going to move miraculously through the power of His Word and the ministry of His Spirit. Please come and join us for any or all of these gatherings, if you have any questions please call our church office at 609-531-0816. For more information Angela Bale’s bio is below:

Angela Bale and her son Ezra are Assemblies of God missionaries serving in Durban, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. They work in evangelism with unreached people groups- specifically Thai and Chinese Buddhists; Turkish, Egyptian, and Indian Muslims; Indian Hindus; and many European peoples involved in witchcraft and the New Age Movement. Angela has worked in leadership training youth and young adult leaders as they minister to at-risk teenagers in Durban’s Indian townships. Both Angela and Ezra believe in the power of the Gospel and are fervent evangelists. Ezra has led several of his friends to Christ. Angela has ministered in many local churches in preaching and teaching, training and discipleship at the Durban Teen Challenge, and as the Academic Dean of the newly revitalized Global University- kwaZulu Natal campus of the Bible College. Angela will be married in September to Shawn McKeon and the entire family is looking forward to returning to South Africa to continue ministering to those who need to hear about the life changing power of the Gospel of Jesus Christ!
