Valentines for Sudan

The seventh and eighth graders' Valentine Dance is enjoyed this year by many who do not even go to St. Gabriels. The collection at the door this time benefited an organization called Harvesters, a Christian orphanage situated in one of the harshest countries in Africa. The people there meet the ongoing crisis in Sudan with love, faith, education and Christian service. Our kids chose this charity to be the recipients of school supplies and donations of money to purchase calendars, flash cards, and other materials needed by the Harvesters' school. Thanks to the middle school kids for their generosity. We can all help the Harvesters right now if we choose to get involved: their website's first request is for prayers.
