Since 2022, Zion’s children and youth have sponsored the education of two children through Lutheran Partners in Global Ministry’s Project: Education India. Our kiddos are Dinesh (age 11) and Srimathi (age 9). Dinesh lives and studies at the Saron Boarding home in Tiruvannamalai, India, which serves 300 boys in grades 1-12. Srimathi lives and studies at the Siloam Boarding Home in Thirukoilure, India. Siloam serves 700 girls in grades 1-12. We provide $40 per month per child. From January 26-February 23, our kids and youth and their families will collect coins for Dinesh and Srimathi, using M&M’s MINIS containers. Our goal is to collect $240 to cover three months of school for each child. Want to help? You can donate in person on February 16 at our intergenerational Cookie Day event (10 a.m. in Fellowship Hall), or you can give online www.zionanoka.org and click on the “Give Today” button.
