CASH for
CROPS
Cash for crops one of our congregations major fundraising projects during the year here at CLC was amazing as our youth went at 5am and picked up veggies and food to hand out to the community. Our youth and adults on the trip then organized and handed out what we picked up to the surrounding community. This ministry at CLC that we have collected for each of the last three years helps feed the Pueblo community, a community that has so little. Every week the cost to do this is $150, we here at CLC have made that happen ever since the ELCA stopped funding this ministry 3 years ago. The church has many volunteers to help but does not have the financial resources to do this alone, Pastor Samuel the Sr. Pastor at Pueblo wanted me to express to CLC’s whole congregation how much these means to the community and how much Pastor Samuel appreciates the love and compassion CLC shows in funding this ministry.
Safeguarding God’s Children There will be a Safe Guarding God’s Children class on September 20 at Noon. If you are interesting in working with the children at CLC in any capacity, this class is necessary/ mandatory.
