Youth Group
Support for our siblings in Malawi
The southeastern African nation of Malawi is facing a food crisis due to severe drought. Last Sunday, the Youth Group sold Malawian carvings during their Christmas cookie sale to help with famine relief. Together, we raised over $350 that will directly support the people at our partner organizations there. Thank you for being the heart and hands of Christ reaching out to our friends in Malawi.
