Subject: Congratulations to First Baptist Church of Maplewood - 2nd Berean Church Certified Shelter through Red Cross

Congratulations Rev. Malone and Church Family for being the second certified shelter with Berean District.  We are excited for you!  It's a blessing to have two churches in Berean that could actually house individuals in the event there is an emergency with the help of course of the American Red Cross - To God Be the Glory. We had 20 pastors and/or representatives to attend the shelter training in April 2011.  We are waiting to hear from you or a designated representative.  Remember, there is a team, you are not doing this alone; but we do need your facility to be certified - meeting certain standards by the American Red Cross, St. Louis Chapter. Blessings,. Linda Joyce Mackey Disaster Management/Preparedness Rev. Carlton Caldwell, Berean District Moderator Rev. Nathaniel Griffin, State Convention Director Rev. Jimmy Brown,  State Convention, President "Impacting Lives, Families & Communities"

Craft Alliance challenges the students throughout their study to develop
their technique and concepts, exhibit their work, and build a portfolio
in preparation for post secondary education.
Classes are held at Craft Alliance in the Kranzberg Arts Center in Grand
