“Taking Root” is a superb five-part congregation education program on hunger (look under the “Hunger Education” tab).
It is available for three different age levels, primary, middle, h.s. each with very different, well conceived activities, visuals, stories, and great graphic look. Several LPF pastors and lay leaders who have used the program in their congregation have raved about its quality, flexibility, and ability to engage young people.
