God changes lives!
And He is using Operation Christmas Child to do just that!
For the past 10 years we have, together, as a church, packed shoe boxes with gifts for children in various countries. Some of these children may never receive another gift in their lives
We fill these boxes with school supplies, clothing, toys and most importantly God’s love. Each child who receives a shoe box has the opportunity to attend a 12-week program called the Greatest Journey where they learn about Jesus and may make a decision to follow Him. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to the project leader Audrey at [email protected]
Thank you to all who have shopped for the supplies to fill the pencil cases.
- Based on the information I received from everyone, I believe we are all set to fill 500 pencil cases.
- If you have purchased supplies, please bring these to the church or my place or I can pick up if that would be better for you. Jane and her team will begin to fill the pencil cases soon.
- We had a donation of coloring sheets that we will use for the 2 – 4 year old children.
- We have all the wax crayons we will need this year.
- I was able to get skipping ropes and balls at summer liquidation sales this week.
Future needs:
- Balls for all age groups
- Stuffed animals
- Toys that will fit in a shoebox
- Girls T-shirts, size 4 or 5
- Girls T-shirts, size 8 or 10
- Girls T-shirts, size 14
- Toothbrushes… ask you dentist for a donation
If you cannot shop, let me know and I will shop for you.
Please continue to pray that we will be led by the Spirit and that God will continue to provide.
