Living the Word through Service

Many of us in the CBS community are involved in serving communities locally and abroad. Even current students, whose biblical studies can be all-engaging, are finding time to be "doers of the Word" in a small way together.

Each of Amy Ekeh's Year Two classes, for example, took on simple Lenten service projects. Manchester class is providing cleaning supplies for families transitioning from homelessness to housing. North Haven is providing food items for a Milford middle school that provides food for kids who arrive at school hungry. Those who are free and want to are also meeting at the related food pantry in Milford on a Saturday morning in April to help out.

And two students studying in Manchester, Phyllis Blauvelt and Jennifer O'Neill, spent the week before Holy Week in Haiti doing Christian outreach.
