Jane Phillips Elementary School
Agape’ also organizes all the party treats for Jane Phillips Elementary School. Several church ladies groups come together and adopt a particular class or classes and provides cupcakes and drinks for the parties and has done this for several years. Churches that are currently doing this are Spirit Church, Grace Community, and East Cross Methodist. These churches have been a great blessing to these children and to JPS.
