With All Your Heart, Give!
BCA Missions Committee invites you to another special opportunity — to give with all your heart to the tsunami relief efforts through the WMU HEART Fund.
WMU's HEART (Humanitarian Emergency Aid for Rebuilding Tomorrow) Fund is managed by the WMU Foundation and was established in response to the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. It is intended to provide aid in the name of Christ to those in emergency or disaster situations.
Whether or not you plan to attend BCA Denver (And we hope you do!), you still can be a part of this effort. Visit www.wmufoundation.com and click on Funds and Endowments. Then select HEART Fund.
Watch for updates from BCA HQ and email newsletters.
