Operation Christmas Child – 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.
