Bishop's Seat Cover Project

 

Once again Bishop Keaton has asked us to collect “Seat Covers” for children and youth throughout the Detroit Annual Conference.

 

Here are some ideas for collecting seat covers: 1) make it a youth group project; 2) have an “Undie Sunday” to dedicate your gathered seat covers; and 3) consider making this a Lenten project.

 

Here are the very simple steps to make this project work:

  • Collect the NEW underwear in your church (be creative and have fun doing this!)
  • Count the packages, pack them up neatly, and bring them to annual conference. It is helpful if the packages are packed in stackable boxes
  • Deliver to the Ministry Fair and look for the Seat Cover display. Please drop off seat covers by Friday (May 21) of conference weekend. Sign the poster with your church’s name and the number of NEW “seat covers” you donated.
  • Let Cathy know if you would like to distribute seat covers to an organization in your district.

It is very easy and churches had a great time collecting NEW “seat covers” last year. Please contact Rev. Cathy Freeman with any questions at 734-665-5632 or cathyfreeman27@yahoo.com.
