PEVA Challenge - Can we, as a presbytery, reach out to 59 Migrant Worker families this upcoming season? It’s simple: that’s one Baby Kit, Health Kit, and Food Kit per church. This is an achievable goal!

May 4, 2012 - 90 Health Kits, 32 Food Kits and 19 Baby Kits and other various items faithfully collected by our members and churches have been delivered to the Rural Family Development Office on the Eastern Shore. Migrant Families have started arriving, setting up at the migrant camps and putting stakes in the ground on various tomato farms as well as preparing for other crops. There are several packing plants on the Eastern Shore, besides the many farms where migrant workers will be hard at work.
Baby Kits, Food Kits and 100% cotton clothing (T-shirts & jeans) are still needed.
As of May 16, 2012 - Several more of our members and churches have been busy faithfully raising awareness and collecting for this outreach project, 40 Health Kits, 7 Food Kits, 3 Baby Kits so far for the second delivery to the Eastern Shore
PEVA’s Hunger Action Enabler will be more than happy to arrange for pick up from your church, or you may bring donated items to the PEVA office. She will be delivering a second load on the first Friday in June.
