Did you know that we do all kinds of Outreach?!Yep, the two atrium classes are collecting for chickens and goats through the Heifer Project, the Middlers are leading the whole Formation group in collecting non-perishable food items for Salvation Army and the Jr. High collected items for the Animal House Shelter in Huntley. (A no-kill animal shelter.) The High School will be working at Hesed House and raising money for charity. And that's just to name a few! If you are interesting in helping out on one of these projects, just call Liz Ryan at the church for more information.

The High School's Mission Trip to Prestonsburg, KY was AWESOME! This was our sixth trip... there were 14 youth and four adults and everyone had a great time and worked hard! We discovered that even when we do small jobs it brings great joy! Check out more pictures on the St. Charles Episcopal Group page on Facebook!
