September 10th, 2009 Grove Christian Outreach
 
T he
Back-to-School event is an annual event put on by the Grove Christian
Outreach Center. It is to help
bless the kids as they journey back to school. This can be a very difficult
time in a parent's life if they do not have the means to provide
school-mandated school supplies. The GCOC tries to alleviate this burden
facing our families by throwing a festival-like event where the prizes for
the games are much needed school supplies.
