Proverbs 3:9-10
9 Honor the Lord with your wealth,
with the firstfruits of all your crops;
10 then your barns will be filled to overflowing,
and your vats will brim over with new wine.
Today’s Scripture
1 Timothy 6:6-11
6 But godliness with contentment is great gain. 7 For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it. 8 But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with that. 9 Those who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap and into many foolish and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction. 10 For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs.
Final Charge to Timothy
11 But you, man of God, flee from all this, and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, endurance and gentleness.

Lisa DeAngelis has announced her resignation effective July 31. We are grateful for her strong, faithful musical leadership — of both congregations — during these challenging times. And she likewise sends “blessings on everyone, as we re-enter the world with hope, faith and thankfulness.”
May the Lord bless her as she continues to follow God’s calling!
Annual Backpack, School Supplies
and Financial Collection
through August 1, as we join with neighboring congregations to donate and fund backpacks and supplies to needy local students – mostly at Chester Eastside Ministries and the after-school program of Christ Lutheran Church, Upper Darby. A collection box is in the St. Paul’s Church narthex.
Sponsored by the Delco Conference of the Synod of Southeastern Pennsylvania. See information below.
Backpack School Supply Collection 2021
Collection Ends August 1, 2021
3 Ways to Contribute
It’s time for the Backpack School Supply Collection. We hope to again be able to supply stuffed backpacks to students in the Chester and Upper Darby Communities. Last year we filled just over 300 backpacks. Over the past two years this has become an Interfaith effort with several faith communities joining what was started with the Lutheran Churches in Delaware County. Here are 3 ways you can support the collection this year.
One way to make a contribution this year is to use the links below to an Amazon Wishlist – School Supplies. Place an order and it will be shipped directly to the crew that will assembly the backpacks.
Links to Wishlist:

You can also make a monetary contribution. Checks can be mailed to
School Supplies c/o Jody Troyan, 1201 Swarthmore Ave., Folsom, PA 19033. Checks should be made payable to Grace Lutheran Church – Broomall. Dave Ehret is again serving as Treasurer of this effort.
Finally, as in past years, you can do the shopping and drop off the supplies at your congregation. See the suggested list of supplies below.
