Operation Christmas Child
join us for an intergenerational operation christmas child packing event!
*sunday, october 6 from 10:05-10:55 am*
Let’s get ready to PACK THE HOUSE! We will do an Operation Christmas Child Packing Event in the narthex, immediately following the 9 a.m. service and before the 11 a.m. service. The junior leaders at the 2024 Vacation Bible School raised over $800 for this very event through a car wash and online donations. Those funds will purchase items to put into the boxes to send to children in need - and we need YOUR help to pack! We also will have a cardmaking station to add notes of well-wishes inside the boxes.
WHO IS INVITED?
Everyone! ALL GENERATIONS are welcome! Children and their families will be able to participate in the packing of the boxes - actively living out their faith of abundance. Older generations can either join in on the packing or sit down, watch the fun, and enjoy treats and coffee.
WHAT IS THE GOAL OF THE EVENT?
To come together in community to pack as many Operation Christmas Child boxes as possible!
