View Finder: Day of Service Volunteers Sow Kindness

Saturday, April 30, churches and community businesses across the greater St. Louis area united to make an impact on their neighborhoods through a project called Serve St. Louis.

Many volunteers spent the day serving in larger events with Feed My People and Habitat for Humanity, but Faith Lutheran Church member Donna Moser wanted to do a project that hit closer to home. Moser invited volunteers out to Bethesda Southgate retirement residence, where she works part time as activities director, to impact the lives of the people she sees every day.

Check out the gallery for pictures of the volunteers sprucing up the residential dining hall with bright flowers.
