Starting November 1st-2nd, kids in HD Children's Ministry will learn about what it means to be hungry. Through our mission-focused Echo weekend we will teach kids why there is hunger, about the people who are hungry and what they as kids can do to make a difference.

Most of us eat multiple meals a day (and probably even throw away some food!) but each day, one in seven people around the world get absolutely nothing to eat. Sadly, most of the people not getting any food are children! We can change that! Here are a few ways to help!

Play Free Rice! It is fun, easy and a free way to donate rice to the UN World Food Program.

Bring in canned goods to Jungle Heights or Elevate in November. These canned goods will provide local families with food to eat. This is a boys vs. girls contest with a fun prize the first weekend in December for the winner! You don't want to miss out!

And finally, enter the 20 QUARTER CHALLENGE! We are challenging each kid and adult involved in HD to bring in 20 quarters in the month of November for Kids Against Hunger. These quarters will go towards healthy meal bags that are sent around the world to feed hungry children. If each of us brings in 20 quarters we will feed 14,000 children who need food.

“Do not forget to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices God is pleased.” Hebrews 13:16

We are on our way to becoming Kids Against Hunger!
