Student Store Next Week

Crayons, pencils, notebooks, rulers, glue, pens and other school supplies are ready to be popped into brand new backpacks for children who come to the Cross & Crown Student Store next week, Aug 8 - 10. Thanks to the generosity of so many of you who have donated items and money for the project. There is still time to bless more children. The cost of each backpack, with supplies, is $27. THANK YOU.

Schools in Oklahoma City begin August 18, 2005. It's exciting to think of how proud and happy these kids will be sporting their new backpacks and supplies on the first day of school. Please pray for them as they begin a new school year! Pray for their safety and ability to learn. And also, pray for their teachers, teacher assistants, cafeteria workers, principal, secretary and all of the adults who work in the building that everyone is ready to go back to work (!), will be positive influences and encouragers to the students and will give all of the children a safe, positive and nurturing environment.
