From @FWMission ... Friday Story: "A Wheelchair for Walter"

GOING ON NOW ... double-down with Free Wheelchair Mission and 1st Presbyterian Church of Midland, Texas. Turning 1 wheelchair into 2, then 4! 
"Because no one should have to crawl!" was Don Schoendorfer's comment when he recognized the need for strong and inexpensive wheelchairs. Due to the DOUBLED matching funds set-up again this year, you can send FOUR wheelchairs for the price of ONE. That price is the same as last year - $78.00. The drive started September 27th and ends October 31st. For more information, please contact local drive coordinator
Maxine Hannifin at (432) 682-8740 or (432) 684-5352.

Want to take one of these wheelchairs for a test drive? During normal business hours, visit the lobby at the Texas Street entrance of First Presbyterian Church-Midland, at the northwest corner of Texas and A streets, on the west side of downtown Midland. You can give the gift of mobility. The cost of $72.00 is a bargain to us ... but it is a life-changing gift to impoverished and disabled recipients ... and there are times when your contribution will be matched, reaching not one - but TWO, and sometimes FOUR recipients. Please note on your check "Wheelchair Gift."
