Refugee Care Kit Drive
|  Worldwide, nearly 60 million people are displaced by war and violence--the largest crisis of its kind since World War II. Half of these people are children. The Church, as the body of Christ, is called to care for the least, the stranger, and the vulnerable.
OUR GOAL AT MESSIAH CHURCH AND SCHOOL:
HOW YOU CAN HELP:

National Fire Safety Month
| October is National Fire Prevention Month
Here at Messiah, we have monthly fire drills, including some with obstacles, as well as other safety drills throughout the year. We held another drill today, and reminded our students to plan for fire safety at home.
In your child's Big Envelope you'll find a checklist for fire prevention and safety in your home. We encourage you to complete the checklist with your child, and to make a family fire safety plan. Also included is a 9V battery for a smoke alarm. Be sure to check your smoke alarms regularly, and replace smoke alarms that are over 10 years old.
You can find other fire prevention and safety resources at http://www.nfpa.org/safety-information . |

Volunteer Lunch Monitors Needed
| Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays
Looking for a way to help out at Messiah? Are you good at working with kids? Have some time regularly available at mid-day on Tuesdays, Thursdays, or Fridays? Messiah is looking for cafeteria monitor volunteers. Monitors help students sign in for lunch, help monitor behavior (which, in general, is quite good), and help dismiss students in an orderly fashion. Available to help us out from 11:00-1:00? Send Mrs. Casselberry an email at hcasselberry@messiahfp.org.
