Saint Ansgar's Sunday School continues to raise money and awareness for Community Uplift Projects (CUP) International. This organization whose projects serve the greater community of Hosur, India, runs an orphanage, medical clinic, and helps to send village children to school.
Please take a moment to visit CUP's new website and to browse our Sunday School pages for a history of how CUP International was chosen as this year's charity by the Sunday School.
Bread for the World is an interdenominational Christian group that works to end hunger through political advocacy.
According to Bread for the World's website, Bread for the World Sunday is "a time for churches to renew their commitment to end hunger in God's world - and take part in a growing movement on behalf of hungry people. Major church bodies, religious organizations, and congregations everywhere are all participating in an international effort to overcome poverty, hunger, and disease in Africa, the United States, and around the world."
Pastor Joe Doherty will be discussing the work of this laudable group and hunger's place in our faith journey.
The sewing group has been very busy. This Sunday they will have on display the many dress kits and school kits that they have been working on for Lutheran World Relief. These kits will be shipped on October 24th making it possible for women in need to sew their own dresses and provide school supplies for their children.
All are welcome to sew for a better world the 2nd and 4th Wednesday of every month 10AM-2PM.
We accept donations of non-perishable food items, toiletries, and cash on the first Sunday of every month to benefit Project Feed.
