Children's Offering and Tanzanian Scholarship Student Update
Every year Sheridan's children support a variety of missions through the offering they give in Faith Formation classes. One mission we have supported for many years is the Tanzanian Scholarship Project. The offering received helps to sponsor two children through this wonderful program. Since we won't be meeting in person for classes for a while longer, we would like to encourage our families to use the Children's Faith Formation offering envelopes to give their offering to allow us to continue to sponsor children.
We have included a recent picture we received of one of our sponsored children and a letter he wrote to the children at Sheridan. I invite you to share this picture with your children and to pray for Elias and all of the Tanzanian scholarship recipients.
