The youth are selling some very cool water bottles made out of recycled aluminum in order to raise money to install a water bottle filling station where the water fountains are. Being good and faithful stewards of all creation is something we are all called to be and by switching to reusable products rather than single use plastics is a great first step.
Join us for our Water Bottle Fundraiser kick off on Sunday afternoon!
