Peanut Butter Drive a Success
St. Paul’s peanut butter drive has ended, as we helped collect over 500 jars of this vital food for Interfaith Community Services (ICS). We partnered with 120 faith communities to help ICS meet their goal of 10,000 jars collected in July. On Wednesday, July 28, 519 jars – about a quarter ton of peanut butter – were delivered to ICS.
Strengthen the Church: Come Welcome Upward Families
We have an opportunity on August 28 to live out our mission to be “a community of generosity and love” to members of our community. That day our church will host many, many families as they bring their children and youth to begin their season with Upward Basketball. So why not do our part to help make their experience on our campus a fantastic one?!
