Hey Scholars! let's show 'em what you got.... 🤩🤩🤩

Be part of a one-day book drive to help Welcome Table share the gift of reading.

A good book is a gift for all ages. In December, Welcome Table will host a book giveaway for the families who participate in our Neighbor 2 Neighbor and Freedom Schools programs. You can help by sharing new and gently used books that have inspired you. Books for teens/adults and books in Spanish are especially helpful. Bring them to church on Nov 20 to donate to our big Little Free Library. November 20 is THE DAY to bring books to St. James' Episcopal Church.
