The Junior High Youth Group from
St. Margaret Mary's Church in Apalachin held their annual 30 Hour Famine
last month. The 29 teenagers and their peers played, prayed, and learned
about the less fortunate in other countries. They slept in boxes to get
the feel of being homeless. The went to the grocery store to learn how
expensive food is and to learn what it takes to feed a family. They helped
setup, prepare, serve, and clean up lunch at a local soup kitchen and saw
poverty in their own community.
The youth group collected $1,280 at church and at sponsors for World Vision. They thank everyone for the community support. |
