We're also collecting school supplies for

Advent is partnering with Cleveland City Schools to provide much needed school supplies to Iowa-Maple Elementary School. Collection of the listed new school supplies is happening now through Sunday, August 19. Supplies can be placed in the box labeled “School Supplies” in the Narthex.
On August 19, as part of our backpack blessing, we will also bless all the school supplies collected. They will be delivered to Iowa-Maple School on Monday,  August 20.
