Blessing of the Backpacks
Sunday, September 8, 2024, 10:15 AM
What is the Blessing of the Backpacks? Students of all ages are invited to bring their backpacks, school bags, or lunch boxes to worship. The 10:15 a.m. service on Welcome Sunday will include a special blessing lifting up children and students of all ages, dedicating them to God's glory as we begin a new school year.
We also invite teachers, aides, principals, administrators, secretaries, cafeteria workers, librarians, janitors, and bus drivers…come to church to be blessed, affirmed in your vocation, and encouraged as you serve children and families in your daily work!
