Our next meeting is Monday, August 29th at 7:00pm in Room 209 at Grace Church. Our Grace Job Seekers NetWORK group will be hosting a free, loaded school backpack Action Team service project for the Grace Single-parent Family Groups, which is being sponsored by my company, Thrivent Financial through member Kevin Boles. "Live Generously" T-shirts will be given to all who participate in the Action Team along with other give-aways.
We still are in need of 25/each the following school supplies for the backpacks:
- Pencil Boxes
- Markers
- Pencil Sharpeners
- Scissors
- Binders
- Staplers
- Scotch Tape
- Drawing Paper
- Calendar/Planners
Please Reply to my email: jjjasko@gmail.com on which items you will provide so we can plan to purchase the rest. We will begin stuffing the backpacks at 7:00pm and the kids and their parents will show up at 8:00pm to pick out their backpacks. Pizza and pop will be provided for everyone, so let's make it a PARTY!
If you want to provide any of the above school supplies but cannot make the event, please drop them off at the Grace Church Office (with your name on them) and we will include them in the backpack stuffing.
Thanks for all your support and we hope to see you next Monday at our Second Annual Backpack Action Team! It will be a lot of fun and the kids will be very excited to pick out and see what is inside their new backpacks!
Live generously,
-Jim
