Fall Leaves Back Pack MinistryThe kickoff for the Fall Leaves Backpack Ministry is here! Every year we strive to provide 250 or more backpacks to schools within our community that have students who cannot financially afford the supplies they need. This year, in partnership with Walgreens, we are again going to be able to purchase a backpack with all of the needed supplies for the amazing low price of just $10! But we need your help. To donate to the ministry go to www.goodsamlv.com or you can turn in a donation to the offering noted “Backpacks.” For more information visit our display in the entry area or see our article in the July Newsletter!
