What happened last week?
 
50/50 - Welcome back Gary Roberts!  He was lucky enough to find the Queen.  Did he succeed?  Sadly no.  $183 rolls over!
 
Helping Hand and Beyond Inc presenter Herline Raphael  came to educate our club about their latest mission to help Haiti after Hurricane Matthew.  The club was treated to a beautiful song.  Hurricane Mtthew hit Hait last month and over 11,000 people have been affected by it.  This group has done mission trips to Haiti since 2009. There they have built a clinic.  Currently there is no electricity in the clinic and there is a lack of supplies.  The next mission trip will be on October 23rd to assess the immediate needs of the community where their clinic is.    Visit their website at www.helpinghandsandbeyond.org.
  
This and that:
