We were thrilled to host around a hundred youth and their adults this weekend to construct 25,200 meal kits for the United Methodist Committee on Relief who will distribute these meals to those in need around the world.

We also got inspired by the Heroes of Justice in our past, and looked forward to our youth being justice heroes now and in the future!
