Backpacks for LWR

Lutheran World Relief accepts donations of “school kit” backpacks which they distribute around the globe to school-aged children (https://lwr.org/instructions).  The St. John’s children’s Sunday school program will be participating and assembling LWR backpacks on Sunday, October 13, 2019.

We will be collecting items for backpacks in a designated bin in the narthex.  New items only are needed.  You can buy items as a “kit,” buy a lot of just a few items or make a monetary donation that will allow us to purchase anything necessary to complete our kits.  A list of items needed are in the newsletter and in your bulletin. Thank you!
