It's hard to believe but back to school is right around the corner and we want to bless our students, from our little kindergarteners all the way up to our high schoolers.
We'll be collecting backpacks, and filling them with school supplies as well as $20 gift cards to local stores and hair salons.
Then on Sunday, August 13th, we'll have a Back to School Blessing during both services. This is when we'll pray for all the students’ upcoming school year and hand out the filled backpacks.
How to Register: If you'd like to receive a backpack, registration opens Sunday, July 16th and ends Sunday, July 30th. REGISTRATION IS ONE STUDENT = ONE FORM
