Ukrainian Family Update
Pastor Steve’s message this past Sunday was about the gift of teammates, and a great example of that is how all of St. Peter’s has come together to support the Savrii Family. This young family has experienced our gifts of prayers, financial donations, furniture, household items, food, and friendship. The last few weeks have been focused on moving the family to safe housing, working with social services to obtain needed documents/benefits, applying for job permits, getting Daria started in kindergarten, starting Serhii and Vitalina in ESL classes, helping with the job search process, and working a plan to help with ongoing transportation. Sharing God’s love with this family is done because our St. Peter’s team has chosen to share their love of God. Recently, Serhii told his case manager that he still cannot believe that his family is here and that such great people surround him. That is what sharing God’s love will do as we cast our nets to those who need our support. Thank you, St Peter’s Team!
How can you help?
So many of you have asked how you can help. Each Sunday during February, we will have a table on the patio to collect gift cards to support the family until they can find employment. You can also drop a gift card off at the church office during the week (office hours are Mondays – Thursdays, 9:00 AM – 4:00 PM; Fridays, 9:00 AM–Noon). We appreciate any amount that you can provide.
Requested Gift Cards - Target, Kohls, Albertsons, Wal-Mart, Ralphs, Trader Joe’s, Uber, or Amazon.
