Backpack Drive

By | Community, Uncategorized | No Comments
This year the Backpack Drive for the Convening of Churches is going to look different because there is so much uncertainty of when students will be back in school. Backpacks will be distributed on July 24 from 8:00 AM- 12:00 PM at Coker UMC.
In order to limit in-person contact, Coker has purchased all of the backpacks and school supplies needed to fill approximately 600 to 700 backpacks. They need our help. They are asking for monetary donations this year to help cover the cost. St. George has participated in this event for many years, and this is our opportunity to participate again. Perhaps we cannot volunteer to help pack the backpacks or to help deliver them this year, but we can certainly participate by making a monetary donation. Please keep our tradition of helping those who need our help alive! Click here to contribute online, or you can mail in a check with Backpacks on the memo line. Thanks so much, St. George!!

The Freedom in Letting Go
When we give up having to control everything-we can gain so much in return.
By: Taylor Brown
We as people like control. We like the assurance that whatever is coming, we can control the outcome no matter what. We crave this feeling of control because we believe that it’s what takes away the feelings of anxiety, worry, and panic. To a certain extent, it does…for a while. The machine we have created runs effortlessly until a pesky rock disrupts one of our perfectly placed cogs and the entire enterprise comes crashing to a halt. Our machines, rocks, cogs, and inevitable crashes are unique to everyone- but we are united in the experience of “I really thought I had this all under control.” Click here to read more.
