Adventist Community Services of Greater Washington (ACSGW), with the help of Adventist HealthCare, has started Healthy Child 1000, a program to assist mothers with needs, from conception to the time the baby turns two.
Prior to the new program, ACSGW already provided food and diapers and a monthly food basket to families. Participating families can now receive fresh produce, nutritious shelf-stable foods and baked goods every other week, as well as feminine hygiene items and 100 diapers each month. At weaning, baby/toddler food will be added.
Try these recipes for healthy peach smoothies, strawberry sauce and marinated tofu by Johanna Emerson and Oleta Emerson, head chef at Mountain View Conference's Wellness Camp.
Peach Smoothies
1-3 cups organic almond milk (we use the Kirkland kind from Costco)
3-4 cups frozen peaches
2-3 Tbsp frozen orange juice concentrate
5-6 Tablespoons maple syrup (May use more or less to taste depending on level of sweetness desired).
--Whiz all in a heavy duty blender
--Best served fresh, but still delicious when placed in refrigerator over night
--This recipe can be thickened to serve over pancakes, waffles, or as a dip for muffins.
Recientemente WGTS 91.9 recolectó y distribuyó más de 40,000 pañales y toallitas húmedas durante su campaña "Operación Llene la Pañalera". El equipo de WGTS transmitió en vivo desde ubicaciones de Chick-fil-A en Maryland, Virginia y Washington, D.C. En cada parada, los oyentes donaron pañales y toallitas húmedas. También recogieron calcomanías de WGTS, lápices, bolígrafos, blocs de notas y protector solar.
Los pañales y las toallitas fueron enviados al Centro de Mujeres de Rockville en Maryland, al Centro de Asistencia al Embarazo en Virginia y al Centro Luces del Puerto del Ejército de Salvación en Washington, D.C.

Educators have embraced the new frontier of hybrid instruction and have adapted their classrooms in a way that would never have been conceived prior to the pandemic shutdown.
Unexplored Territory
Though Columbia Union Conference schools have returned to in-person learning, many of them continue to offer a virtual option for the unforeseen future.
