STUDENTS
Thanks to the South Florida Youth Group from St. Gregorios Orthodox Church of India in Hollywood for donating food to the Blessings Food Pantry and then boxing it up for families. With Jess Woolverson, student ministry leader, and Paige Darnell, volunteer at the pantry, the students wrote notes of encouragement and worked with Farmer Noah from The Fruitful Field to harvest veggies for the boxes. It was a great day of service, learning and fun!
