Boulevard's eRecycling Day

Saturday, July 17th Boulevard Presbyterian Church held its first ever eRecycling Day in the parking lot. Thanks to the hard work of many members and some great advertising, we collected an entire moving truck worth of old computers, monitors, printers, keyboards, and the like. The photo to the right was taken roughly one hour before we closed up shop and quit for the day.

Like the articles mentions, the idea for this event started in an Adult Sunday School class and was nurtured by people who wanted to find ways to put what they learned and what they believe into action. It was something truly inspiring to be a part of.

This is the new model, the new "norm" for Boulevard. No longer letting faith become something academic, something to learn and remember, but rather to ingest like food and let the energy it produces propel us to new places. It is going to be exciting!
