Crop Walk 2011

Our MWPC Crop Walker walkers, David & Drew Camp and Pastor Rob joined others from neighboring churches and the Highline Community College on Sunday, May 1st and completed the 5K walk to help draw attention to the challenges of poverty and especially hunger in our community. We also were able to raise $9000 – $9,500 a portion going to the local food banks. The MWPC walkers raised $515.00 – thanks to all the generous supporters. As the CROP Walk slogan, says, “Ending Hunger One Step at a Time” – all the participants were joy-filled and honor to walk on behalf of the hungry a on a great sunny afternoon through parts of Des Moines.
