For 30 years people of faith have gathered at the State Fairgrounds in Sedalia, Missouri to ease the plight of the poor and hungry and to seek ways to eliminate hunger all together.  Planning for the next Festival of Sharing always begins with the conclusion of the annual event.  We are grateful to Terri Williams, from Office of Creative Ministries, in Columbia, for prayerfully guiding the planning throughout the year.  Each year we celebrate what is new.  New this year was the full integration of the youth into the morning worship service and the unveiling of the brand new Festival of Sharing logos.

For information about participating in the 2012 Festival of Sharing contact Festival of Sharing Coordinator, Terri Williams, at 573-474-7155.

Gardening

Through Heifer International, each year the Festival of Sharing features an international project and a project in the United States.  This year’s US project is a gardening project designed to enable people in poverty to grow some of their own food and even be able to sell some for added income.  It is a program designed to build self-reliance.  It is a hand up rather than a hand out.  For more information contact Carol Oliver at the Festival of Sharing office at 573-474-3332 or email her at oliver@umocm.com
