30 Hour Famine Results

Today, we completed our 30 Hour Famine. We spent the weekend at the church fasting, both to increase our own awareness about world hunger, as well as raise money to help fight it. We had guest speakers offer very interesting workshops. Lesha presented a workshop on inner beauty, and how we should think of ourselves as beautiful creations of God. Walter offered a workshop on self esteem, conversation skills and how to treat others. Lastly, Loretta led us through some skits that had a Christian message.

Although we were a small group, we were able to raise $600! Thank-you to everyone who contributed!

We ended our famine with a group lunch, without forgetting that there are people in the world that have no known end to their hunger. We pray that one day world hunger doesn't exist anymore.
