As a new school year begins, join us this Sunday, August 30th, for our annual Blessing of the Backpacks. Bring your backpack, messenger bag, lunch box, or any school item you’d like blessed during the 10AM worship service. We’ll pray for a safe, joyful, and fruitful year of learning for all students, teachers, and school staff.

Today is a great day at Morrow. Please join us in welcoming Cynthia Lindsay, our new Director of Family Ministries, on her very first day with us.

Cynthia comes to us from Princeton Theological Seminary, where she is pursuing dual master's degrees, and she brings a real gift for ministry with children and youth. In her words, she believes the church can be a place where families "slow down, build authentic relationships, ask the hard questions, and know that they are loved by God exactly as they are."

Say hello if you see her around the sanctuary or the neighborhood, and help us give her and her husband Nolan the warmest of Morrow welcomes.

To help you get to know here, here are a few short clips from her interview video.

Read more about her at the link in the comments.
