Heifer International

It was 75 years ago  –  Dan West  had  a vision – as he passed out cups of milk to refugees, he had this thought, “They don’t need a cup of milk, they need a cow.”  So Heifer International was born.  “Faith” was the  first  Heifer donated. 

In March of 2018, LUMM donated the Heifer “Love” which was given by Missions & Outreach.

In April the LUMM sent “Hope” and “Joy” on their way.  And then there were 4 more.  Some of these originals should now have “Passed the Gift”. 

Now, most recently, 4 more have been donated.  Through our Gift Ark Project, the Lakeview United Methodist Church and friends sent 2 Heifers on their Ark.  Then 2 more were added with the Gift Ark donated  by  the Lakeview Methodist Foundation.

It’s hard to find enough words of thanks and love for what everyone has done for this project.  Please continue your prayers and donations. 

Oh, and by the way – my favorite animal in our visit to Heifer International – “Sunshine” the Jersey cow.
