Bible and Book of Common Prayer Challenge 

The goal is to read one chapter in the New Testament, one Psalm, and one of the prayers in the Book of Common Prayer each day for one year to anchor each day in scripture, and to become familiar with the beauty of the prayers in the Prayer Book.  Rhonda Canby is the facilitator for this TNAC class.

July 24 Freedom Summer

Freedom Summer (also known as the Mississippi Summer Project) was a campaign in the United States launched in June 1964 to attempt to register as many African-American voters as possible in Mississippi, which had historically excluded most blacks from voting. This is also the time when three political activists were murdered for educating voters. It has been 50 years ago that this historical summer changed America and strengthened the civil rights movement. Come and listen to these Voices of Faith and let us celebrate their courage when all the odds were against them.

They will be needing school supplies and our Back Snack program will need back packs. The program needs BORING back packs. Please get plain colors, dark green, blue or black if possible. We have a better return rate if they are not so pretty or cool.

We need gently used children's clothing for infants to size children's 16. We especially need pants and shorts for boys size 5 to 8.

So as you see sales please purchase what you can. Your donations will help a great deal. The barrels for Floyd School donations are on the second floor next to the steps.

Thank you for helping,
