“For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.'” -- Matthew 25:35-36

CROP WALK  Millions of people around the world walk distances every day...

• To get water for daily needs
• To bring home food for their families
• To find safe shelter in times of war or disaster 
• To find wood for fuel and fodder for livestock
• To go to school
• To farm distant fields
• To take goods and produce to market
• To find medical care when illness strikes

The CROP Walk is October 9.  We convene at the Presbyterian Church in Highland Park at 1:00 p.m.  The walk begins at 1:30 p.m. and typically lasts approximately one hour.

Funds raised go to local agencies and to Church World Service to alleviate hunger and poverty in 80 countries throughout the world.  CROP is the community service and fund-raising appeal for Church World Service, an organization of 36 denominations united together to relieve poverty, aid in development, provide disaster relief and refugee assistance worldwide.
