Starting Sunday, Oct. 6 you can pick up a Backpack in the Commons for Backpacks & Bears! Since 2007 Two Feather’s Ministries has distributed 6,004 of these backpacks to three reservations where they have relationships with indigenous churches (Yakama, WA, Navajo, NM & Mississippi Band of Choctaw).

Your participation in this program assures that a Native American child living on a poverty-stricken reservation will receive gifts this Christmas. 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 as outreach!

Stop by the designated area in the Commons (10/6, 10/13 or 10/20) for more information. When you pick up your back pack we will need to gather your: name, contact info and allow us to record the red tag number when adopting a backpack. Inside of each backpack is information on suggested gifts to put inside the bag.

We ask that all completed backpacks be returned to the Commons in the designated area by Sunday, Oct. 27th.

Thank you for helping us share the Love of Christ this Christmas through this local mission partner.
