Once again, we’re joining a number of local businesses to provide school supplies to children in need in the Berwick and Bloomsburg school districts. Residents are starting their school shopping early as part of a communitywide backpack donation drive called Stuff the Bus. Donations will be accepted until August 17th. Our goal has been increased each year. Last year we had 530 backpacks distributed! Backpacks get delivered to the entire Berwick School District and then surrounding schools/shelters in need. School officials will distribute the backpacks to qualifying students. In your bulletins you will see an insert for the Stuff the Bus program. A list of school supplies is listed. Please leave your donations in the yellow box outside the lounge. Thank you in advance for your participation!
The summer is slowly fading away and soon the kids will be heading back to school! To send the kids back we will be holding our blessing of the backpacks August 16th during worship. Please bring your backpacks to church to be blessed. School survival kits will also be given out as a reminder that we are all are praying for you and a successful start to the new school year!
Our book study on the Psychic Life of Jesus will continue Wednesday, July 22nd in the lounge. Everyone is welcome to join!
The time is drawing closer to our photo show and competition! A call for submissions will be released in late August! Registration forms will be posted here on our website so keep on the lookout and plan to join us for another exciting year! The show will be held Saturday October 17th from 3p-5p.
Discussion will be had tomorrow July 15th at 6:00 pm on the Psychic Life of Jesus. Refreshments will be served. Everyone is welcome to attend. Please enter the building on the CVS side ramp door and walk up the steps and walk straight ahead to the lounge!
