On May 2nd, we hope to deliver 300-500 cakes to our Baptist Children’s Homes in NC and we need your help. Please consider baking a cake (or Cakes) for the wonderful children being taken care of at our Baptist Children’s Homes. Once you bake the cake(s), place them in one of the cake boxes we provide at our office and deliver it to our CRBA office between the hours of 7 and 10 a.m. on May 2nd. We will take all the gathered cakes to Clyde and other designated locations where they will be used for dessert after meals. And, on a child’s birthday, the child will choose which cake they want for their birthday celebration. This is a great opportunity for our churches and individuals to make a big impact on these wonderful children and the staff at our Children’s Homes. For more information and to pick up free cake boxes please stop by our CRBA office. Lastly, we have prepared a video explaining how to pack/wrap each cake to protect it from freezer burn. Click here to watch the video. A longer version is available on our CRBA website.

Catawba River Baptist Association

Out of the Box (1)
  • Free Bird Feeders and Refills
    Most outreaches to those in nursing homes will touch their extended family as well. Provide an acrylic bird feeder – the kind with suction cups that stick right to the window. Return occasionally to refill the bird feeder and check in on your adopted elderly friend.
     
  • Bait at Local Fishing Spots
    This brings new meaning to the verse from Psalm 51, “I am a worm and not a man.” Those who fish with live bait need worms, grubs, goldfish, minnows, or whatever. Purchase these critters in large quantities from a bait shop, go to the lakes, and give them away. Be sure to invite those fishing to your Sunday worship service.
