Backpack Buddies: Help AFAC send backpacks full of food home each weekend with kids who otherwise wouldn’t have enough to eat. We’ve got a box in the narthex to collect your donations of: granola bars, microwavable meals and soups, squeezable PB&J, juice boxes, cheese crackers, boxes of raisins, trail mix, mac & cheese bowls, and fruit cups. Questions? Contact Louise: Go to restorationarlington.org/contact and choose “Children’s Ministry.”

All are welcome—we’ll brainstorm, pray, and laugh. Questions? Contact Liz: go to restorationarlington.org/contact and choose “Prayer.”
The AFAC Farmers Market Challenge: Last week’s team collected 1314 pounds of produce for distribution to Arlington’s hungry. Today was the last Sunday for this season. Check back next week for the grand total of how much Restoration volunteers collected this summer!

Prayer at 4. Come to the Treehouse (2nd floor) each Sunday from 4–4:40 pm to pray. We pray for our worship service, for each other, for whatever’s going on in the world that we care about. These meetings are lively, varied, and lots of fun. All are welcome—including kids.
