As part of our VBS theme, we had two special projects:

1) Locally, we collected non-perishable food items for the Tomah Food Panty.

2) On a broader scope, we collected offerings daily and at our church picnic to help the children in orphanages in India. Our church body operates 12 orphanages and 2 Lutheran elementary schools in India and supports 3 missionaries and 14 national pastors. With less than 3% of the country being Christian, there is much work to do to tell of the love of Jesus!

********************************

We collected and donated over 100 pounds of food for the Tomah Food Pantry and raised $82.22 for our church's orphanages in India. Thank you! Much of the offering came as change in plastic bags, and several children said they brought all they had! What big hearts little people have!
