Her department adopted Mug A Month as their missions project in 1984. Two years later, the program was placed under World Missions Ministries with Raymond Potter as director. Under Potter's direction, the Mug A Month Program mushroomed into a solid and viable method of providing funds and prayer for our coffee house ministry. When Potter retired, Sherrill Orvin was appointed as the new director. He has added two mugs to the series and plans to extend the series to include all nine gifts of the Spirit.
