Our church supports Operation Christmas Child by packing boxes and hosting a relay collection center.
This year’s packing party is Sunday October 29th, after worship. We’ll have some lunch together and then get packing!
This year we are blessed to be able to use profits from the Trash & Treasure Sale to reduce our cost of shipping 100 of our gift boxes. Instead of $9 per box, you may sponsor a box for $5. You will find a pledge sheet in the foyer to indicate that you will sponsor boxes.
