PINE RIDGE

94 tanks filled!

Meeting basic needs is necessity for us all. First Church supports Pine Ridge Reservation in Pine Ridge, SD, and raised money to match heating fuel costs this winter. Average winter low temperatures can dip well below zero degrees. $400 fills a family’s tank for the winter, and each Reservation family pays $200 of their own. Last year 500 families were in need of heating assistance. First Church filled 94 tanks this year!

Pastor Dan, director of the Reconciliation Center on Pine Ridge Reservation, says “Thank you from the bottom of my heart!”

Warming their homes is a wonderful way to say we care and heart-warming for each of us! We are so blessed! Stay tuned for other ways to support Pine Ridge! Email Elaine Karns
