3 Weeks ago I challenged our middle school students to give to Blood:Water Mission. We have installed a mailbox in the Den where students can give their money and everything they give on Wednesday night through the end of the year will be given to B:W.  So far we have given over $46 to help provide clean blood and water for Africans.

In the spirit of Lent (also known as giving something up) I am challenging our students to give up drinks for 40 days.  The idea is to drink only water for 40 days and give the money you save to B:W to help provide clean water for villages in Africa.  Encourage your students to join in on this, do it as a family, and come together to help in this cause.  We will be handing out “scorecards” on Wednesday night to help students keep track of their progress and you can find other resources on the B:W website.
