I stumbled into youth ministry at Our Saviour's and it has turned out to be one of the best parts of my job. Primarily because of the incredibly gifted cool kids I get to meet and hand out with. One of those kids is Jennie Halper; a freshman at Augustana in Rock Island. She's not tall, but she is determined ... determined to make a difference in the world. While many kids go to college and look for the next party, Jennie went to college and looked for the next cause. Her latest efforts to make a difference revolves around kids, dancing, and hospitals.
Jennie says, "Basically I'm doing a dance marathon where we raise money for local childrens hospitals, and we spend time with the kids playing games, and just dancing."
If you would like to help one of the Our Saviour's kids make a difference (her goal is to raise $200), click here.
Way to go Jennie!
So proud of Jennie! And what a fantastic picture! haha
