Hands and Feet Day – ES Chapel
“For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink.” ~Jesus (Matthew 25:35)
Elementary Hands and Feet service day is happening on December 3rd. We will be serving the homeless community at CoLife by preparing Christmas gifts for the members who live at the shelter. We hope students can share the love and cheer of Christmas by donating gifts! This is a freewill donation and is not required by every student. However, we do encourage everyone who is willing and has the means to participate! Each grade has been assigned one gift item to bring in as a donation. Our goal is to collect 95 of each of the items on the list! Donation collection ends on Wednesday, December 1st.
Kinder – socks
G1 – toothbrush & toothpaste
G2 – soap & shampoo
G3 – cup noodles & Pringles chips
G4 – box of tea
G5 – chocolates
Thank you for your support and enthusiasm as we teach the students at MAK how to care for “the least of these” for Christ!
