Care for creation and Green Army together did 4 weekend seedlings sales for “hunger hunt”. Started with a dream of sending 100,000 Rs to Hunger Hunt. Due to the overwhelming participation we raised our dream to 200,000 Rs then 300,000 Rs. Today the 4th Sunday alone we collected over $3500. As of now we collected over $6500. 👏👏👏👏The final amount will be posted after couple of days. Our Achan is planning to talk to Chirammel Achan and church will be transferring 500,000 Rs to Hunger Hunt. 👏👏👏👏👏.
I would like say big thanks to all the overwhelming support for a good cause. Thanks for all friends who grew all the plants at home and brought to church. Thanks for all our friends who watered the seedlings in our church almost 6 weeks. A very big thanks to Our Achan and Trustees for the full support for this good cause. Thanks to our Care for creation kids and Green Army for make this happen. We together did it. God Bless🙏🙏🙏🙏

Sunday Food Waste tracking
Tasks for Green Army
1 Setup green bins and black bins by 11:00 AM. Green bins will be in the electric/storage room next to the kitchen. We setup two stations, each having one green bin and three black bins. Additionally, one black bin should be kept in kitchen and another one near the lunch serving station. Please make sure no other black bin open in any other areas of FH.
2 Monitor the trash stations to make sure everyone follow the guidelines. If any spoon or tissue dropped in the green bin, it can be picked up using the trash picker.
