Mission First

Thanks to everyone who participated in Backpack Sunday last month.  We were able to donate 19 backpacks to the Restoration Center, a ministry of Central Lutheran Church in Minneapolis.  On September 12, we blessed the backpacks (which were filled to overflowing with school supplies) as well as the backpacks of all of our students for the coming year.

Rolf Lowenberg-deBoer, who heads up Central’s social ministry was incredibly thankful for the donation.  The rough economy means that there are more families that are not able to come up with the money to pay for school supplies and many of them make their way to the Restoration Center.  These donations will go a long way to helping kids learn.

Thank you, for living out the Gospel!
