Greetings,
What's happening you wonder - a lot!!! There is a smorgasbord of events planned! As I look at the list I believe there is something for everyone! The events are opportunities to give of your time, but they're also a chance to create memories and make new connections.
I am so excited to see that Zion in Oldwick is hosting Feed My Starving Children. This is such a fun event. There's music, laughter, and a sense of accomplishment. Thanks to Cindy Cooper for keeping us connected so that we can be a part of this event.
A team gathers around a table and is assigned a task. One person adds flavoring, the next person puts in a scoop of dried vegetables, the next pours a cup of soy powder, the last person pours in a scoop of rice. The bag is moved to the next person who weighs the bag and adjusts so that it meets the appropriate range. The bag then moves to the next person who seals the bag. The bags are placed in a box and sealed. You repeat this as many times as possible over the course of your shift.
The most exciting thing happens at the end when they tally the results and you find out how many people will be fed and nourished by your generous offering of time. If you have never done it, I invite you to sign up. I guarantee you'll have a good time! You just might come away with a new friend.
There's a lot happening. Come and see!
Pastor JJ
