Please join us at Coffee Hour after the 11am service Sunday, May 22, as we welcome back Ethan Mandel from his trip to Tanzania during the Sunday coffee hour. Ethan will share about his visit and experiences with our sister parish and linked village in Gawaye, Tanzania. We will see photos of his trip and of the children we support in their early education through the Carpenter’s Kids program. Grab a cup of coffee and see how we at Ascension have affected the lives of children on the other side of the world.
Greetings to the Church in Gawaye!
