Summer Story Time
Bethel’s Outreach Team is organizing a very special project. A group of folks in the town of Pomaria, right up the road from us, is planning to start a Summer Story Time for children under five-years-old. Many of the children in the Pomaria area are behind in basic skills, and reading books regularly is one way to help them catch up.
The plan is for each participating child to take a book home to keep each week. Gently used and/or new books appropriate for the age level are needed for this program. The Outreach Team feels it is a project that would allow us to help make a positive impact in our community. Collection boxes will be placed outside the office and in the back of the pulpit side of the nave.
Please share any children’s books you would like to contribute by May 15. All donations are appreciated!
