Sunday School Back to School Drive

~ Sunday School Back to School Drive ~

Once again St. Matthew’s Sunday School is sponsoring our annual Back to School Drive.  The purpose is to show God’s love to the children serviced by the Wesley Community Center and UMOM.  All supplies donated will be taken to the Wesley Center and UMOM and distributed before the beginning of the new school year.  All supplies must be brought to the church on or before July 13th. Your support means so much to these children, especially this year as many school districts have reduced funding for school supplies. Children will begin the new school year with renewed hope and new school materials thanks to your love and care. YOU are God’s eyes, ears, hands, and feet.

 Here is what is needed:
Backpacks
24 count Crayola Crayons
Crayola Markers
Pencils
Pencil erasers
Glue sticks
12″ rulers
1″, 3 ring binders
Pocket folders
Wide-lined notebook paper
Simple calculators
Scissors
Underwear for ages 5 – 15
Socks for ages 5 – 15
Toothpaste and toothbrushes

Look for the boxes to fill in the back of the narthex or bring supplies to the office during business hours. Please contact Marsha Lehman if you have any questions at 480-993-3907.  Thank you for your support and participation!
