Got new toothbrushes? One group needs them for a medical mission trip to Guatemala this summer.

Cub Scouts Ryan Williams, background, and Isaac Chi collected food as part of Cub Scout Pack and Boy Scout Troop 780’s “Scouting for Food.”

On Jan. 31 and Feb. 6, scouts from Cub Scout Pack and Boy Scout Troop 780 collected more than 500 pounds of food donations in the Rosewood neighborhood of Cinco Ranch. This service project commemorated the 100th anniversary of the Boy Scouts of America and also provided the Scouts an opportunity to support Katy Christian Ministries and the Houston Food Bank’s Super Bowl of Caring.

The Settle family adopted Angeline, 7, from Haiti. Enjoying playing the game Rock Band are from left, Ethan, 10; his mother, Alecia; Angeline, and his dad, Bret Settle.

Her plans never included adoption but she said God changed her mind.
