Minneapolis South
teens raise nearly
$1,500 in 30-hour famine

FARMINGTON, Minnesota—Minneapolis South Teens raised $1,456.84 for World Vision’s 30-hour famine Feb. 23 and 24.

Instead of having the teens ask members to sponsor them in the famine, they asked them to buy $5 tickets for a homemade chicken dinner and to buy raffle tickets for $1. The teens served the food restaurant style, and the parents worked in the kitchen. The raffle drawing took place after dinner.

On Feb. 23 seven teens and two of their friends went to the home of Terry and Nancy Larson to participate in the famine. They had a study and discussion and game time that evening.

The next day, five of the teens shoveled snow from a neighbor’s driveway. Later that day the group cleaned a shelter for women and children. They ended the fast with a spaghetti dinner and ice cream sundaes for dessert. Terry Larson.
