Ms. Carey asked the kids to help her with a project. She had prepared a package she is sending to her brother serving in the military “far, far, far, far…” away. The package was filled with things he forgot to pack from home with some additional treats from Carey. The children participated in an echo prayer to bless the package and her bother.
Dear God, thank you for this day. Bless this box and the man that it goes to. Please keep him and his troops safe. Thank you for bringing us back to church. Amen.
