30Hour Famine

My name is David Bigam, Youth Director at St. John's United Methodist Church, in Ivyland, Pa.  I would like to let you know about a feel good story especially after recent events that have unfolded these past few days.

Some youth and adults are participating in World Vision's 30Hour Famine beginning at noon tomorrow and ending at noon Sunday. During our 24 hour famine the youth, adults and myself will be fasting, well at least most of us, to help raise awareness of Hunger in our world. Also during this time the young people will be helping to prepare meals with the help of our older generation members for The Aid For Friends program.

We are also building cardboard box shelters that we will be sleeping in Saturday evening in our "Box City" on the property of our church, and that is to raise awareness for the Homelessness we are dealing with all around us.

We will be collecting non-perishable goods from noon till 7 pm tomorrow, hopefully from our community also with the help of a banner we had hung out all week.

So, if your interested, please feel free to stop by and check it out!

Thank you!

In His Name,

David E Bigam
