This Volunteer Spotlight shines on some out of state visitors -- the youth group of Burke Presbyterian Church (located in Burke, Virginia outside Washington DC). 

The members of Burke Presbyterian are involved in a wide variety of outreach ministries, from local blood drives to Habitat for Humanity to Bread for the World.  The leaders of Burke also take their youth on urban ministry projects each year, including trips into DC and New York City.  This year, they chose Pittsburgh and made their way to EECM.

The Burke Youth spent several days volunteering in EECM's programs.  They helped sort coat donations for EECM's homeless programs, unloaded groceries, and prepared meals in our Hunger Programs.
