Mitzvah Day

Today was Mitzvah Day at our Temple. A mitzvah is a "good deed". My second grade class baked cookies for the Mustard Seed School and Wellspring. The Mustard Seed School is a place for homeless children to go to school. The forth and fifth grade classes made 600 peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for Loaves and Fishes! Families donated fruit and chips as well as the bread, peanut butter and jelly to make the sandwiches. Nice to see kids that normally do not make their own lunch making lunch for the hungry. Allen donated blood and reached his first gallon mark! Between the Creek Cleanup and Mitzvah Day at the Temple we had a busy weekend.
