Putting together an auction for the Union Rescue Mission, high school sophomores and First EFC Wichita attenders, Parker Tatro, Ashton Schrag and Hannah Yowell raised $2,115 to aid the homeless. The trio attended EFCA CHALLENGE 2008 in Salt Lake City where they were motivated by the speakers to reach out and help people. At the conference they participated in packaging meals to be sent to Africa. After CHALLENGE they began volunteering periodically at the Union Rescue Mission in their community, which lead to the idea of having an auction to further help the homeless. The 15 year olds are wholly committed to continuing to help their community in any way they can.
How is the youth group at your church serving in the community?
