Sunday Worship and Backpack Blessing
August 9 at 9:30 am - 10:30 am
Worship Service: Backpack Blessing
Date: Sunday, August 9
Time: 9:30–10:30 am
Location: Sanctuary
Backpack Packing: 10:45–11:30 am in Jorgeson Hall, immediately after worship
As a new school year begins, students, teachers, and school staff are invited to bring their backpacks and bags forward during worship for a blessing for the year ahead. We'll also bless the supplies our congregation gathered for Kids Above All's Back to School Backpack Drive, then stay after worship to help pack them into backpacks for children in need across Chicagoland. Whether you're starting school, returning to the classroom, or simply want to send our students off with prayer and encouragement, all are welcome. Please invite a neighbor to join us.
