On January 21, 2017, Marshall Chapel hosted a Youth Summit. Surrounding Law Enforcement from Onslow County and youth from area churches came out for this very informative discussion. In attendance were police officers, both current and retired, FBI Agents, Detectives as well as other officials. There was a panel discussion and a reenactment of “how you should act if you get stopped by the police” and then a question and answer section. The youth as well as adults received very good information. Two mothers also shared the emotional stories of losing their beloved children to drugs.

MARSHALL CHAPEL REVIEW PAGE 7

Marshall Chapel is supporting the Morton Elementary School from October 2016 – June

2017 for the Backpack Buddies Program. If you would like to contribute please donate five dollars per person weekly for nine months. This will equal $45.00 for the school year. This amount feeds 25 students every week until the school year ends. The school chooses the students and they are anonymous to us. The monetary donations are

collected by the Auxiliaries and Church members; and subsequently turned in to Sister Marina Williams. Sister Tikishia Smiley shops, prepares and delivers the bags each week to the school. It is a labor of love. Thank you for your Support of Marshall Chapel Missionary Baptist Church Backpack Buddies Program.
