| School Supplies Project |
School Supplies for Chancellor Elementary School Children: There are many families at Chancellor Elementary School who cannot afford the many school supplies that they are asked to purchase. Resurrection Faith in Action Team is asking members of the congregation to help provide some of these needs.
To still participate in this project, pick up an apple or apples from the Baobob Tree or pick up one of the lists of suggested purchases. Please return the items with your receipts by Sunday August 7 and no later than Sunday, August 14. Matching funds for this project are being provided by the Fredericksburg Chapter of Thrivent Financial for Lutherans.
On Sunday, August 14 we will do two things.
1) Have a blessing for the many supplies we will be providing for the Chancellor School children who are in need.
2) We ask that Resurrection children bring their own school supplies and we will take this opportunity for a blessing for our children as they prepare to begin a new school year.
Thanks you for making this project possible!
