Mission Sunday and Backpack Blessings, August 29th
By Michelle Shirk • Jul 23rd, 2010 • Category: Announcements, Ask JJ
It’s back-to-school time! I find it hard to believe that summer is almost behind us.
Gather your backpacks, briefcases, purses and sacks and bring them to church on Sunday, August 29th for a “back-to-school blessing!”
During all three church services, Pastors Mike and Katie will invite children and youth to the front for a backpack blessing and gift presentation. We hope you can join us for a special send-off celebration of the new school year!
Also on this Sunday, we will learn about the mission team experiences of the summer.
Pastor Katie will be preaching on the Rocky Boy Mission and how the team worked together to be the hands and feet of Jesus to the Chippewa Cree Tribe.
The Haiti Mission Team will show a multi-media presentation of their experiences in the only 3rd-world country of the Western Hemisphere.
Learn about their experiences of accompaniment and about the wonderful Haitian people who touched their hearts.
