Palm Sunday (April 13th) Walk-a-thon

Priecīgas pēdas—Happy Feet

Raising money for shoes for kids in Kurzeme.

Unfortunately, children’s shoes are still a problem for poor families in Latvia, especially in rural areas.  The Latvian Church in America Youth section (LELBA Jaunatnes nozare) has invited congregations in Canada and the United States to help by organizing fundraisers—Walk-a-thons.

The money will be used to buy shoes and socks for kids—also orthopedic and other special, hard to obtain (in Latvia) footware for adults.  This summer the head of the LELBA Youth section, Rev. Dag Demandt, along with an international  (U.S., Canada, Australia) group of volunteer young people will distribute the shoes in Kurzeme.

When – Sunday, April 13 (Palm Sunday)

Where – around the Church / Community Center

What time – begin at 11:30—end at 1:00 with pizza in the nams.

Worship service at 10:30—all are invited!

Come pray, come walk on Palm Sunday.  Palms will be provided!
