The money will help people who do not have health insurance and who are currently unemployed.
ÒThis is a need that gets greater and greater as more people are applying for assistance,” Scotland Community Health Clinic Director Donna Young said.
According to Thompson, the church considers it a privilege to help the community at large. Church members have also helped the Haiti Emergency needs through Coastal Carolina Presbytery with a donation.
Thompson said the church wants the community to know how much the church appreciates the support given to their fundraisers, especially for the Fall Ingathering which draws people to come out and eat the chicken salad prepared by Presbyterian Women and the barbecue pork.
Church members would also like to extend an invitation to anyone to join them for Sunday services at 11 a.m.
ÒDr. Bruce Ezell is a part-time commissioned lay pastor for Faith, and is also a full time professor of biology at UNC-Pembroke,” Thompson said. “His messages are inspiring and enables one to put to practice what they have heard in their everyday lives.”
Faith Presbyterian Church is located at 2220 Elm Avenue in Laurinburg, just past Scotia Village.
