Blessing of the Backpacks and
INDOOR Parish Picnic
Sunday, August 26th
Back to School Picnic 
 
 This Sunday we will bless students, teachers, administrators...really anyone involved in education as they return to school.  

Please bring supplies for New Hope's After School Program.  The list of requested items can be found below.  Stacie Wilson, Director of New Hope will be here to celebrate their ministry as they start their fall programs.

After the 10am service we will have picnic in the Great Hall.  The men's group is providing the meal and everyone is asked to bring a side items, salad, or desert.  We will supply water, tea, and lemonade if you want something else to drink please bring it.

Molly and Andrew have ordered a bounce house and we will have others games and activities for kids.

Finally, invite your neighbors and friends...this is an easy way to invite people to church and who doesn't like free food?

Want to Help:
  • Bring food and drink to share
  • Help put tablecloths on the tables in the Great Hall Sunday
  • Make lemonade and water
  • Help clear tables after the picnic
