Back to school means pencils, pens, and new school sneakers! New sneakers in the right size, such a given for most of us, are an incredible gift for a homeless child. Take a sneaker from the tree during Fellowship Hour on Sunday and buy for your chosen child. You can return sneakers to the box in Smith Hall or mail them directly to Tracy Goldman at the church. For questions or to get a link to the sign-up sheet, contact Tracy Goldman at [email protected]. Sneakers are due back to the church by October 4.
