On September 29th, Hamilton Mennonite Church will be packing 200 school kits to help children across the world go to school. It will cost about $1,600 plus fabric and lots of smiling volunteers.
There are so many ways to help:
i) Donate money online or by cheque to Hamilton Mennonite Church, or by cash in an envelope (by sanctuary door - ask an usher). Via any method, please designate your gift to "school kits".
ii) Sew a school kit bag - or cut fabric, or thread cording. Everyone welcome! No previous experience necessary. At the church Wednesday August 14 and August 21 from 7-9 p.m. If you'd like to do some sewing at home, talk to Lori R.
iii) Pack a kit - Help during Sunday School on September 29th.
And the best for last, a friend from First Hmong Mennonite Church, who herself received a school kit as a girl, will be our speaker in worship on the day we pack the school kits.
