Blessing of the Backpacks

Attention teachers, adults, and students of all ages! Bring your back-to-school backpack (whether brand new or an old favorite) to church with you on Sunday morning, August 10, for a special back-to-school blessing during The Gathering and Traditional worship services.

And, even if you’re not in the back-to-school crowd this year — or haven’t been for decades — we hope you will join us for this special moment of blessing and recognition of the beginning of a new school year.
