Heifer Project
Our annual Church School Heifer fundraiser has begun! Heifer International works with communities to end hunger and poverty and care for the earth. By giving families a hand-up, not just a hand-out, Heifer’s mission is to empower them to turn lives of hunger and poverty into self-reliance and hope.
Our children have their calendars and banks and have been learning about people in need both here in the United States and around the world. Here are the Heifer projects selected by the church school:

Grade 2/3/4 |

Each of our Church School classes is conducting various small fundraisers. You can also give online! Click here to make a secure donation through the Heifer website.
Our project culminates in the Middle School Youth Group taking a weekend trip to Heifer International’s Overlook Farm in Rutland, Massachusetts. This is always a great hands-on, fun, learning experience. (Click here to read more about one of our trips there.)
Please join us in congratulating our church school children for once again taking on this fundraising challenge. Support them in their work, and pray for their success!
