“I think that I will never forget the kids in the orphanage and how they have to live in such a poor environment. They still smile and find ways to be happy even though they don’t have material things or parents to take care of them. I enjoyed being there and working as a part of a team. The Mayan Ruins were awesome and really made me wonder about how and why. I hope I will have a chance to go back and take something special to the kids. Thanks for sharing this experience with me.” Coleman Neal.

SHA Missions was honored to once again take part in the Community Blood Drive during the month of June.

"Girls' Night Out" for SHA Missions
December 12, 2012

Laurie Jo’s Southern Style Canning of Norman Park sponsored a “Girls’ Night Out Pajama Party” with a portion of the proceeds going to SHA Missions. It was a great evening of fun, fellowship, and shopping! Thanks to everyone that participated and thanks to Laurie Jo and staff for helping us SHARE HOPE AROUND.

December was a busy month for SHA Missions. In addition to going on our mission trip to Belize, we also worked as Santa’s helpers at the Moultrie Children’s Cheer and Toy Shop. We are delighted to be a part of this worthwhile local project that spreads Christmas cheer and hope to thousands of Colquitt County children. Jacey, Libby, and Allie are learning the joy of giving and sharing hope around.

The first annual "Run to Remember" held August 4, 2012, in Moultrie, Georgia, was a tremendous success. Approximately 300 participants and volunteers gathered to compete in the 5K, 10K and 1-mile fun run and to fellowship and remember special people in our lives. Runners from Alabama, Georgia, Florida and even New York came to be a part of this memorable event. We, at SHA Missions, are grateful to the community of Colquitt County, Sha's many friends, participants, and wonderful volunteers who made this day so special. The proceeds will allow us to Share Hope Around with the people of Belize on our mission trip in December and others around us throughout the year.
