Candy & Treats Community Event!
All children are invited to our annual “Candy & Treats Community Event” on Tuesday, October 31st here at our church in the MAC!
Children are welcome to come between 6:00pm – 7:30pm for treats and fun!
We have a sign –up sheet posted in the foyer of the MAC for those that want to participate and do a table. It would be great if we had tables lined up all around the MAC!
We Need Your Help! We want to have a CANDY DRIVE during the month of October. We have so many children come to this event. Even though everyone that participates brings candy, we still need more.
There will be containers in the MAC, and in the fellowship hall to drop off candy. Deadline to bring candy will be Sunday, October 29th. Thanks for your help!
Operation Christmas Shoe Boxes!
Pack a shoebox and touch the lives of children and families all around the world, bringing hope through the Good News of Jesus Christ in the form of a simple gift.
Boxes are in the foyer of the MAC and in the fellowship hall.
Inside the box is information on what to pack & the shoebox label.
Boxes need to be returned back to the church by Sunday, November 12th.
Our very own Jacob Watson helped a few years ago to deliver shoe boxes to children. He said the kids were so excited.
If you have any questions please see Amanda Watson or Leslie Bivens.
