St. Mark's Crop Walkers: Devin Owen, Stephen Boone, Karen Boone, Barb Thomas, Mindy Wentzel, Brenda Gair, Michelle Owen, Laura Schreckengast, Ben Haussmann and Jonah and Grace Schreckengast.Crop Walk 2014

St. Mark's crew walks to raise funds to end hunger

 

The Greater Lycoming County CROP Hunger Walk took place on the afternoon of October 12, 2014.  St. Mark's Crop Walkers included Pastor Elkin, Devin Owen, Stephen and Karen Boone, Barb Thomas, Mindy Wentzel, Brenda Gair, Michelle Owen, Laura Schreckengast, Ben Haussmann and Jonah and Grace Schreckengast.

Everyone met at St. Mark's, where the walk started. Walks were 3-10 miles long, and followed the River Walk. Walkers from many local churches and Synagogues participated.

The walkers took pledges and walked to earn the pledge money.

The Crop Walk is sponsored by Church World Service and local walks are organized by religious groups, businesses, schools and others to raise funds to end hunger in the U.S. and around the world.

CROP Hunger Walks help to support the overall ministry of Church World Service, especially grassroots, hunger-fighting development efforts around the world. In addition, each local CROP Hunger Walk can choose to return up to 25 percent of the funds it raises to hunger-fighting programs in its own community.

CROP Hunger Walks help to provide food and water, as well as resources that empower people to meet their own needs. From seeds and tools, to wells and water systems, to technical training and micro-enterprise loans, the key is people working together to identify their own development priorities, their strengths and their needs – something CWS has learned through some 68 years of working in partnership around the world.
