Water for Kenya

A parishioner told me about AC and we decided to run with it this past holiday season. During the month of December we told the story, showed the video, and challenged people to spend less so that they could give more.  And they did!  In 2 weeks we raised $5,000 for a fresh water well in a small village in western Kenya (we went through “The Water Project")

More than just giving to a project many people in the church expressed their gratitude for the permission they received to step back from the cultural shop-fest that Christmas has become.  So thanks for the great idea and the encouragement, AC will be a part of our church’s holiday celebrations for the foreseeable future.
