Backpack-Packing Party

Backpack-Packing Party

Join us for after worship on Sunday, Oct. 6, at 11am, as we gather in the Commons to pack backpacks for refugee students coming to the Richmond area with support from the IRC (International Rescue Committee), one of our Mission Partners.

We’ve been busy collecting back to school supplies since early September, in anticipation of our party. Thanks to everyone who’s supported this effort!! Come worship with us on Sunday morning and then stay for the party. Refreshments, music and games will spur us on as we organize school supplies and pack them into backpacks for students in elementary thru high school grades. This is a great opportunity to engage YOUR kids and teach them about unselfish love. 

 

We’ll collect supplies through Friday, Oct. 4. On Saturday, we’ll organize everything so that by Sunday, we’ll be prepped to get the backpacks packed and ready to be delivered to the IRC.
