LIFE IN THE COMMUNITY

Holy Nativity's Vacation Bible School under the direction of dedicated and creative Madelaine Burgess collected $250 for a Water Buffalo for the Heifer Project and breakfast food to make over 58 breakfast bags for AID for FRIENDS with food items left over for another time.  It was an exciting event with many ministry volunteers this year because it was held in the  evening.  Parents thanked us for the new time, which is more family friendly.
