On February 21, most of our Sunday School students met in the Roundabout to learn about Heifer Project. Now the collection time has begun. Students in all classes, preschool through adult, are hoping to collect $5,000 (an ark of animals) that will provide a source of income for impoverished families throughout the world.
Students in the younger grades, preschool through 5th grade, brought home an ark and a calendar from Sunday School this last week. If your child missed this week, stop by the Roundabout - the arks will be there for all four weeks of the program. The calendar is designed to be a tool for you to use with your child - to talk about all the things we are blessed with, and to focus on sharing those blessings.
For the older grades and adult classes, many are using the My Cup Runs Over sheet (available at the church) to help guide discussions and encourage giving in relationship to the blessings we enjoy.
Christ asks us to be his hands and feet. Let's demonstrate this servant-hood by reaching out to those in need. Please support this venture by bringing your donations to the church. Designated jars are located adjacent to the sanctuary.
