THANK YOU

Dear Unity Church,

Thank you so much for your amazing support of the Backpack Ministry over the last school year.

With your generous donations, twenty--two elementary students and thirteen middle school students were able to have food over the weekends.

This ministry is truly a church-- wide project.

Thanks to everyone who has made donations, went shopping, helped unload the groceries, packed the backpacks, and delivered the backpacks.

More importantly, we appreciate all of your prayers for these students.

Please continue to keep them in your prayers over the summer months.

We look forward to resuming this ministry in August.

In Christ, The Backpack Ministry
