Summer Stretch at Second Harvest


Our July session of Summer Stretch has 45 participants and on Tuesday, July 17th we went to Second Harvest Heartland’s food bank in Golden Valley to serve in the morning. While there, students learned about the organization that helps support the SOTV food shelf and sorted 17,105 pounds of food donations.

A crew from KSTP interviewed a couple of us for a story that will air on Friday, July 20 at 4:30 and 6:30 p.m. Look for us on the news on Channel 5 -ABC!

Afterwards we enjoyed lunch at a nearby park before spending the afternoon at Water Park of America.

The vision for Summer Stretch is “that together we would all grow in faith as we share the transforming love of Jesus Christ with others through service and recreation.”
