COMMUNITY members joined the Seventh-day Adventist women’s ministry in a fundraising event on Sunday.
“This is our first major event for this year,” said Nancy Nannay, head of the ministry.
Almost 100 individuals bought tickets that cost $15 each and enjoyed the buffet at the Spicy Thai Noodle Place from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m.
The proceeds will fund the transportation and other expenses of the NMI delegates who will attend the church’s 2012 conference and retreat on Guam, Namay said.
The SDA women’s ministry will send at least eight delegates to the conference which will be held on Sept. 2 to 4 at the Guam Marriott Resort and Spa.
This year’s theme is “Healing, Reaching, Reviving.”
Nannay said the conference will also focus on networking, interactive discussion, fellowship, peace of mind, friendship and spiritual revival and rejuvenation.
Organized by the Guam-Micronesia Mission women’s ministries, the conference will be attended by delegates from Saipan, Guam, Yap, Chuuk, Pohnpei, Ebeye, Kosrae and Majuro.
Nannay said the conference aims to help church members in the outreach and community services they provide the residents of Saipan.
