At any given time 800 million people, 26% of the world’s population, are menstruating. Millions of these people are school age girls who drop out of school because of no supplies to catch their flow. The MoonCatcher Project helps to keep girls in school by providing free reusable, washable menstrual pads to girls living in poverty throughout the world. Come hear how changing the lives of girls through education can help change our world for the better…one girl at a time.

About the guest worship leader: Ellie von Wellsheim is the founder and director of The Mooncatcher Project.
