The Christmas Zambia Project at the Woods Chapel Congregation was A Huge Success!
The kids’ Scavenger Hunts filled Shamba Huts to overflowing. Quarters, nickels, dimes and pennies as well as paper money collected by the kids totaled $128.64. Way to go kids!! Adding in jewelry, coffee, and card sales along with generous donations from the congregation, the grand total was $1708.61 — and that doesn’t count the Outreach jar. The impact from this project is huge. This will pay the salary of 2 teachers for a whole year, or buy 285 textbooks, or provide 14,233 hot lunches, or buy 1½ Zambulances (bicycle drawn carts) to transport ill people to the hospital. What a meaningful Christmas present from Woods Chapel! This demonstrates a truly a world-wide community that reaches around the world.
