Angie Dilmore at Mission Mart

Ten Thousand Villages Mission Mart​

In 2017, FPC member Angie Dilmore longed for a way for FPC to have a greater capacity for outreach/mission work but was unsure of how to make that happen. After seeing a fundraising market in the lobby of a mega-church in Dallas, Tx., she set out to create something similar, albeit on a smaller scale, at FPC. She partnered with global, fair-trade, environmentally-aware organization, Ten Thousand Villages, and the Mission Mart became a reality. This mobile pop-up shop sells unique, handmade gifts and goods from artisans around the world. 100% of proceeds goes to mission projects both locally and internationally, for example, FPC’s Malawi Partnership. Save a little bit on items from Ten Thousand Villages and contribute to Mission Mart at the same time! Just use this Order Form.  Angie will place your order with her wholesale account.  She’ll receive the items and let you know when it’s arrived!

Community Coffee Labels for Schools

Members of FPC enjoy Community Coffee in the morning (or through out the day) and we cut and save Community labels for local schools.  The schools can redeem them for cash. It’s an easy and delicious way to contribute! Just check it out at the Community Coffee Cash for Schools  website
