The 20th century Christian martyr Dietrich Bonhoeffer wrote:   It is easily forgotten that the community of Christians is a gift of grace from the kingdom of God, a gift that can be taken from us any day.   Some day in the future, we will remember fondly the investment we make into Christian community today.

For the last nine years the people of CIL have provided backpacks full of school supplies to area elementary, middle school, and high school students. This will be our 10 Year Anniversary of this outreach!  We thank God for His help in this! CIL have provided backpacks full of school supplies to area elementary, middle school, and high school students. We thank God for His help in this! Over 200 families will be touched by this project. The scope of what we can accomplish is dependent on your generosity! Gala Johnson's stewardship and hard work have reduced the cost of each backpack to $20.  How many backpacks can you buy?  One for $20?  Ten for $200? I am asking you to prayerfully consider how many backpacks you can purchase.  I believe God has called every backpack to have a sponsor so that we can reach more families than ever before. Sponsor your backpack(s) by choosing "Back-to-School Blessing" from the drop down menu on our giving page. Thank you for...
