Homestead Interact Club delivers 100 books to the kids at St. Marcus School

On behalf of the Mission Advancement Team and St. Marcus School, I'm writing to thank your AMAZING Interact Team at Homestead for the book donation and the food & recipe package for one of our families!!

It was such a pleasure to meet David and the students last week. Our scholars had a BLAST opening the books in the library, and it was so delightful to watch their reactions as they unwrapped.

Later that week, we delivered gifts to the "Patricia P." family, one of the recipients in our Christmas Angels program. The Interact students' food and recipe package was a PERFECT match for Patricia!! She was absolutely overcome with gratitude.

We are so blessed to have connected with you this holiday season, and I hope it's just the beginning of an exciting partnership! I wish you and the Interact students blessings galore in the new year to come. THANK YOU and God bless!!

With much gratitude,

Cecilia Davis
Executive Assistant to the Director of Mission Advancement
St. Marcus Lutheran School

Durango club brings the power of light

By Joe Williams, Rotary Club of Durango Daybreak, Colorado, USA

Most people in the United States take electricity for granted. Only if a powerful storm hits and it is taken away do we get an understanding of what it is like to depend entirely on the sun for our light.

There is, however, a significant population in the heart of the United States that lives their lives with only the sun to light the way.

The Navajo Nation is large. Our club is located slightly north of the Nation. And so our project began.
