Dairy Subsidies, “Sticky Fingers,” and More!
Vegan Bakery Next Door to Seekers!

Sticky Fingers, a woman-owned, vegan bakery, is heading to Takoma this fall. Sticky Fingers will open a retail bakery and commercial kitchen in the space formerly occupied by Soupergirl at 314 Carroll St., NW. The opening date is tentatively set for September.
The bakery will have a retail counter for cakes, cupcakes, cookies, brownies, and buns, along with a grab-and-go section for top-selling savory items from its H Street N.E. diner, like aged and fresh vegan cheeses, vegan charcuterie, and local favorites, including Soupergirl soups.

Sandra’s Tasty, Beautiful Meals on the Fly

Being happy with my conversion to being vegan about 3 months ago, after being a vegetarian much of my adult life, I thought offering something, if even just a recipe, would be a cakewalk. Not so.

International Giving 2023

INTERNATIONAL GIVING
2017
Seekers Church continues to support many missions and ministries in the United States and other countries. The amount budgeted for international giving this year approaches 20% of what we expect to receive in offerings over the course of the year. Once our budget for the year was approved, and the overall amount available for international giving had been determined by the Stewards of Seekers Church, all Seekers were invited to request support for missions or ministries where they are personally involved.
After worship on February 19th the community met to determine how our international giving will be distributed. At that community meeting we affirmed support for 13 international missions and ministries:
