First Church members donated over $600 to Heifer Project, International.  “Noisy” offerings collected in tin cans and a large gift from the Agape class allowed the Education committee to order goats, chickens and ducks to be sent to places where Heifer sponsors self-help agricultural projects.  A well done television story appeared on Sixty Minutes !! Wednesday, January 12, featuring Beatrice from Uganda, and what has happened in her life as a result of the gift of a goat.  We include here a link which you may want to use to see the story for yourself.  Thanks to all who assisted with this outreach of love and concern.  Here’s the link:
