We will bless the backpacks that students will be carrying to school this year.  It is a way for us to acknowledge the hard work that they do and connect their daily lives to their faith lives. For them to feel that the different aspects of their lives are in fact integrated, we need to continually find ways of acknowledging and supporting their activities outside of church. God loves and supports us in all that we do.  It is not restricted to our time at church. Students of all ages are welcome!
