Gadsden School Book Drive: During October we concentrated on stocking our little library for all Gadsden Elementary students. The children have enjoyed having a variety of books to read and will be encouraged to choose a book to take home over summer break. Be on the lookout for a church-wide book drive this fall.
Testing Incentive Program: We are delighted to be able to help once again with the statewide testing incentive program which offers prizes to the students with the biggest test score improvement. This year we furnished 30 scooters!!
Thank you for your continued support of this valuable ministry.
