The confirmation class of Holy Trinity Church in Codroy completed a stewardship project as part of their confirmation program this year, and collected $580. They decided to donate this money to PWRDF’S World of Gifts. With this money the class chose to purchase many things:
- 1 donkey
- 15 kg of grain seeds
- 4 goats
- fruit and vegetables seeds
- 15 chickens
We were quite pleased with what they did, especially considering that we were shut down for a number of weeks due to COVID-19.
