Shakopee Faith Lutheran Youth had a special overnight Feb. 23-24 to experience hunger, do service projects, raise awareness of mission opportunities and money for the hungry in various parts of the world.
The youth built cardboard box homes to sleep in; Pastor Del Palmer shared a message on making yourself available; "Come The Morning" movie drove home the point that at any one can become homeless.
The students served 30 homeless people pancake breakfast outside at Loring Park; played a Ugandan Tribe game that created awareness of the plight of the children in Uganda; packaged2,808 meals at Feed My Starving Children; $315 was raised for AFLC World Mission help to the hungry and $130 was given to World Vision work in Uganda. A great weekend.
