WE ARE SUPPORTING “CHRIST’S CARE FOR CHILDREN” in Kenya during the first quarter of 2019. Christ’s Care for Children: Kenya is a child sponsorship program, initiated by the LCMS Office of International Mission. It is directly linked to the Project 24 sites in Kenya. It is through care and compassion for these children that they receive safe housing, food, education and spiritual care. Each site is strategically located near an Evangelical Lutheran Church of Kenya church and school so that the children can receive academic as well as spiritual teaching and care.
*************************
MIDDLE SCHOOL NIGHT! Friday, February 22. Middle School students from Bethel and Shepherd of the Valley are invited to Bethel’s Escape Room and an evening of Bible study, games, food, and fellowship.
