400 little Kiwis need your help.

Hi Neighbours

Our littlest people need your help. Poverty doesn’t start at 5, but until now there’s been no nationwide programme to help preschoolers who are hungry and cold.

KidsCan is changing that. They’re delivering raincoats, shoes and five fresh meals a week to 25 early childhood centres. Attendance is up, and the children are happier and more settled.

"Everyone has the same meal so children don't feel like they have less," Manaia View Kindergarten teacher Kathy Belz says. "It's upholding everyone's mana.”

40 more centres are waiting for help. KidsCan, Stuff and Neighbourly have partnered up to raise enough money to support 1000 more children - and we need 400 more generous Kiwis to hold little hands. To support a child, sign up at KidsCan.org.nz

This series has explored the damage that shame and guilt can wreak on us, and how God wants to set us free from those knots to live fully. Mike will be looking at the story of The Prodigal Son, and what we can learn about God's heart toward us.

Hope you can join us, as always, the coffee is hot from 10.15am and this week, the youth group will be selling nacho's for lunch to raise money for Easter Camp - just $5 a plate, delicious!
