The Stark Interfaith Hunger Walk is back in person this year on Sunday, May 7th at North Canton Community Christian Church on Main St. Registration is at 2pm and the walk begins at 3pm. They have a lot of great activities planned prior to the walk with a soup and dessert social to follow. This is an interfaith walk to raise funds for the Akron Canton Regional Foodbank and help end hunger in our community. Much like the Habitat Faith Build, many different Faith Communities are coming together to help battle one of the leading problems in our county, state and nation – food insecurity.
How can you help? You can sign up to walk on May 7th and/or you can sponsor Zion’s team of walkers. We are collecting cash donations in any amount from $1 to $5 thru Sunday, May 7th from anyone interested in sponsoring Zion’s team of walkers. All that donate will receive a sneaker to sign their name on which will be hung around the church. We hope to have sneakers covering the church walls. There are volunteer opportunities on May 7th if you are unable to walk. Please see Debbie Fox if you would like to volunteer. Our Boy Scout Troop at Zion will be sending 6 Scouts to help that day!
Sign up sheets for walkers are in Luther Hall. We hope to have a large group of walkers wearing our yellow “God’s Work Our Hands” t shirts. Friendly dogs on leashes are welcome too. Please join us for this great event that supports our mission of mattering to the community and helping so many.
