	Dolls on Mission Makes Front Page News Reported in Mission Mosaic Our church's Dolls on Mission ministry has spread to so many churches and touched so many lives through the work of our missionaries that Mission Mosaic put a picture of children with their dolls on the front cover of the February 2010 issue.  Though the story does not name our church, the pictures included with the story are from our church and our doll ministry.  You will recognize our sanctuary stairs covered with dolls and a picture of Sherry and Emily Southerland making dolls.  We are grateful that the churches and missionaries named in this story are using a wonderful mission tool that began in our own church.
