Chapel Offerings
What an amazing month we had raising money for the Pregnancy Resource Center… We ended up raising $355 with our baby bottle collections and I believe that this was one of our largest collections over the past years. What a wonderful gift we can give to this local center!
For our offerings in October, we will be working with a mission called Charity: Water. They are committed to helping communities in Third World Countries receive clean water through drilled wells, spring protections, and BioSand Filters. If you would like more information about this project, please visit http://my.charitywater.org/united We are helping The Village Christian Church and The First Christian Church of Morris with this mission.
Sometime this month we will be making chapel offering boxes that will help you collect any change you have and help the students remember that we have chapel on Mondays and Tuesdays.
A Few Reminders
We will still be going outside even as the weather turns a little cooler, please have your child bring a sweatshirt or jacket so they aren’t cold!
If you haven’t brought in a change of clothes for your child yet, please do that as soon as possible. Accidents can happen at anytime! This is VERY important!
We are looking forward to a wonderful Autumn!!
