21st Time 2011

The Satanta United Methodist Church’s 21^st Time continues to engage in activities meant to show others the love of Christ through social action. Most recently, these activities have centered on our world’s most precious resource: children. On February 17, the class hosted a second literacy fair that placed more than 300 books in the hands of children to help them build their own home libraries. Books left over from this event were donated to USD 507 and to the Dudley Township Library.

On March 23, the 21^st Time partnered with DISCO, the Satanta High School National Honor Society, the Satanta High School Chieftain yearbook staff, and the Satanta High School Kayettes to host a fundraiser to benefit those impacted by the earthquake and subsequent tsunami in Japan. By donating the groceries needed for this event, the 21^st Time helped to contribute more than $1,100 to the American Red Cross. On April 17, the class will join forces with the Satanta Chamber of Commerce to host the annual Satanta Easter Egg Hunt at 1:00 p.m. in the city park across the street from the Satanta United Methodist Church. In May, reading incentive awards (including much-coveted Satanta Day carnival wristbands) donated by the class will be given away in both school buildings in Satanta.
