CHESHIRE, CT, 02/28/09 - Hannah Louys (CQ), 17, of Cheshire, plants crosses in the ground in front of the First Congregational Church of Cheshire during the 30 Hour Famine Saturday afternoon. The 1,100 crosses being placed represent the number of children that die each hour world wide from preventable causes like hunger, poverty, and disease. Fifteen kids and 3 adults from the First Congregational Church's Youth Group are fasting from 12 noon Saturday until 6 p.m. Sunday to raise money and awareness for the group World Vision. Jamison C.
