30 Hour Famine

One of our activities was to make shelters out of cardboard boxes. This helped us to imagine what it was like to have nothing but someone else's trash to help us meet our physical needs.

Along with games, some additional activities we participated in, during the 30 Hour Famine: a trip to the grocery store to try to buy as many groceries as possible, with just $10; make stick figures, out of toothpicks or drawn on paper, to represent the 30,000 children that die daily from hunger and other diseases; made beaded bracelets for a future fundraiser; a mini-worship service; and, a time of prayer and reflection.

Playing "bite the bag".

A late night Scrabble game. The games' pieces were looking    mighty tempting, as nourishment, at this point.

After sharing communion with the congregation, on World Communion Sunday,
the group broke their fast by sharing a bowl of rice. After the rice was prepared,
each participant was encouraged to serve someone else, before sitting down to eat.
