August 19

Registration for the FMSC MobilePack opens Sunday, August 19, so be sure to reserve your date and time frame early! Register here. The goal this year is to pack 750,000 - a record-setting amount! Hundreds and hundreds of volunteers are needed to make this a reality. Please sign up. And don't forget, we are having a competition among First Pres committees and groups!

August 13, 20, 27

Save your Mondays in August beginning August 13 and ending on August 27. Nancy Siewert has arranged for a free Summer Story Hour on those Tuesday mornings at 10:00 am outside under the tree!

We will read a story, do a craft, have some snacks and still have time to read on your own. Your little ones won't want to miss it!

August 1 - September 2

August 1 through September 2 are the dates for the Tank Back to School supply drive! Tank Elementary School is one of the most ethnically diverse and needy schools in the Green Bay public school district. First Pres has "adopted" Tank and has a long history of supporting and interacting with the school and students. 

One of the ways we support these children is with a BTS supply drive - to make certain every child has the items they need to begin school on the right note. Every kid deserves to have new pencils, crayons, glue, etc. Find the list of supplies needed here. The children can also use lip gloss, socks, extra tissues, and underwear. There is a table at the back of the Sanctuary to deposit your donations when you are here on Sundays (or any other day) through September 2. Thank you!
