BACKPACKS AND BEARS MISSION DRIVE
Backpacks & Bears has officially kicked off and backpacks are available at Commons Corner each Sunday in October. Your participation in this program assures that a Native American child living on a poverty-stricken reservation will receive Christmas gifts this year. By providing children (ages newborn to 15) with these backpacks, the local church has an opportunity to share the hope-filled message of Christmas with their families in an effort to break the cycle of dependence and despair.
