Backpack Buddies Logo

Backpack Buddies helps provide weekend meals to children in our community who are at risk for food insecurity. We meet on Tuesdays from 11am-12pm to pack approximately 220 bags of food (each one contains 2 breakfasts, 2 lunches, and 2 dinners) which are then delivered to local elementary schools for weekly distribution. The first Tuesday of each month we meet from 7pm-8pm. Supervised children are welcome to help.

We meet at 201 E. Frederick Drive, Sterling, VA 20164 in the classrooms on the hill. Contact Hilary for more information at HHLlearning@gmail.com.

Mission Statement

To Know and Share God's Love.

Description

At St. Matthew's Episcopal Church, we truly strive to meet our mission "to know and share God's love."

In this:

  • We aim to be relevant to today's world and to help people experience the love of God in their lives.
  • We provide countless opportunities for outreachand serving the poor and disenfranchised in our community.
  • We welcome people who are in every possible place in a spiritual journey - from those who are questioning if God even exists (or maybe are even sure He doesn't) to those who have had a deep and abiding relationship with Jesus for many years.

Anyone who is looking for the meaning of life, searching for understanding how God is at work in the world or in their lives, or is looking for a strong sense of community with people who just love being together should come to St. Matthew's.
