A big thank you to Sierra Vista United Methodist Church for their recent generous donation of $5,444 - proceeds from their annual Harvest Festival - we were not the only recipients of their generosity.

As it turned out, the weekly team of volunteers from SVUMC were serving at the SK today, so it was easy to snap this photo with their check!
Thank you SVUMC!
