This Valentine’s Day, celebrate with your favorite people all while loving your neighbor in Ghana. The goal is to have at least 50 sweethearts participating so that a full well can be drilled. Included in this life-changing Valentine’s Day: celebration of laughter from 5-star comedian Jerry Miner, swooning music from Adam Goettsman, sparkling Welch’s red grape juice or sparkling Welch's apple juice, and delectable chocolates from Farr’s is the gift of clean water to villagers in Ghana. Now this says LOVE!

All you need to do is sign-up! Email Kristina at the St. Paul's office with your choice of red Welch’s sparkling grape juice or sparkling Welch's apple juice. You can mail in a check of $50.00 to St. Paul’s (write “Wine to Water” in the memo line). $26.00 of every Valentine’s Bag goes to the well project.  Valentine’s Gifts can be picked up Saturday, Feb 13^th from 10am to noon.

Want to be super loving? Buy one for you and your special someone and gift another!

A special thank you to Adam Gottesman and Jerry Miner for their very kind   contributions to the success of this event.

Together with Cathedral of the Rockies and UMCOR, let’s demonstrate God’s love and turn wine into water for villagers in Ghana.

Share God’s love,

Pastor Nancy

The response to the UMCOR Bucket Cleaning Kits project was so great that 20 (rather than the planned 10) buckets were made.  There were cash donations enough to create hygiene kits for Trinity UMC and for a donation to Hawthorne Elementary School's backpack lunches program. Thank you to everyone who was able to participate through donations, service, and prayers.
