What One Congregation Can Do

By The Rev. Mike Kinman


From St. Jame's Episcopal Church, Potomac, MD At a 30-hour famine (at which middle and high school youth fasted for 30 hours) on March 23, 2007, the St. James' youth group learned that unbelievably 29,000 children die every day from malnutrition and preventable diseases-a staggering, sobering, and very sad statistic. Given the high standard of living most of us living in the U.S. enjoy, it seems inconceivable that in today's world we lose 29,000 children each and every day.
