(USA/Iraq)–A church in the United States is looking for help as they assist people in war torn Iraq. Southern Baptist International Mission Board officials say the First Baptist Church in Collierville, Tennessee hopes to ship more than 14-thousand kits that contain vitamins, Band-Aids, toothbrushes, shampoo and dishtowels. The goal is to develop long term relationships, opening doors for future outreach. Other congregations are being encouraged to help with this more than 500-thousand-dollar project.
