We will be having our annual “Blessing of the Backpacks” service on Sunday, September 13 at 10 am. Students of all ages are encouraged to bring their school backpacks for a special back-to-school blessing. Students will also receive a small gift to remind them throughout the year that they are loved by God and by our congregation.
