We have end of year picnic - many of their Moms and Dads will attend. Our goal is to reach as many children and families as possible for Christ. Our congregations donates school supplies and clothing. Sometime in August right before school opens, we set up our Fellowship Hall in something that resembles a store. Clothing is separate by size and gender.
Volunteers man each table.
We generally have enough for these children to select 3 complete outfits. The school supplies have already been separated according to lists we receive from our local schools by age and what is needed. Our summer Caravan program consists of a lot more activity. We also include volunteering these children to our seniors who might need gardening, yard work, small repairs. There are water-balloon tosses, we have a dunking booth and of course our Pastor is our first volunteer in the booth, we have baking classes, lessons on grooming and a craft night.
