Serving the World

October 23, 2010

During the 2010 Challenge conference this summer, some 4,000 teens and volunteers—gals and guys— partnered with GlobalFingerprints to help sew 5,000 backpacks for needy children in Congo, India and Haiti. The two students, seated, are from the EFC of Willmar (Minn.); and the volunteer is from Arthur (Iowa) EFC.
