Other Ways to Learn and Serve

Loving Shepherd Ministries will be hosting a meal and charity auction for the vulnerable children of Haiti, Ethiopia, and the United States on Friday, September 9, 2022, at the Five Points Washington. The meal and Silent Auction start at 5:30PM with the Live Auction starting at 6:30PM. If you would like to donate an item, please contact Brittany Schwind at 309-678-8205 or brittany.schwind@gmail.com. The auction is a wonderful evening of fellowship and enjoyment while raising much needed funds to help the world’s most vulnerable children. And, this year, anyone who comes to the Auction for the first time will have their total auction bill matched dollar-for-dollar by a generous donor to help even more children. There will be free childcare provided, so couples with young children are encouraged to attend.
