Children from small Georgia church answer call for Bibles for Uganda

STAFF REPORTS

BLAKELY, Ga. — Children in this southwest Georgia town set tables, took out the trash and cleaned dishes to earn money to send Bibles to the East African nation of Uganda.
The children, who attend the Hentown Church of Christ, collected $175 in one month, said church member June Winkler. One 4-year-old even mopped his grandmother’s kitchen to help, she added.
The church, which averages about 50 in weekly attendance, added its own contributions and sent $675 to help with the effort, coordinated by the Centerville Church of Christ in Tennessee.
