Dear Friends,
During Lent, our children collected your donations of change during the offertory for their annual service with The Heifer Project, which provides animals and training for sustainable farming and small businesses for people in need around the world. This year, you donated $510!
Our kids have fun sitting with Miss Debbie after worship to count the proceeds of the day. When they’re finished collecting for the season, they enjoy even more discussing how they will “spend” their money by choosing animals, plants, or training for giving.
This year, they chose one goat, one sheep, one pig, tree seedlings, two hives of honey bees, and a flock of chicks.
Thank you for your participation in this annual ministry! To learn more about Heifer’s work, go to www.heifer.org.
Wishing you every blessing,
Mtr. TJ
