LIVING IN GRACE

I am collecting Box Tops for Education coupons to help Rochester schools pay for special programs and reading materials.  Would you please help me? Deacons Table has been a big help with all the cereal they get.

Look on  any General Mills product for these “Box Tops for Education” coupons.  You can hand them to me, mail them or simply leave them in my mailbox that is located in the church office.  Thanks a bunch and God Bless!   Daun Nicholas
