St. Mary’s Food Bank – The monsoon storm that hit Phoenix 2 weeks ago damaged the warehouse at St. Mary’s Food Bank. They lost some of the food due to the damage. We are going to be collecting food until Friday, September 18th, to give to St. Mary’s Food Bank. If you would like to donate any non-refrigerated food, you may take it to your child’s classroom. Please check the expiration dates before you donate items.

Emmaus Explorers – We have a group at Emmaus called the Emmaus Explorers. It is for children in Kindergarten through 8th grade. If you are familiar with our previous Lutheran Pioneer program this is something similar. The next meeting is Saturday, September 19th, from 9 – 11 am. All children are invited to attend.

Fry’s – Don’t forget to hook up your Fry’s VIP card to Emmaus for the Fry’s Community Partners Program. Go to to sign up.
