Operation Christmas Child a huge success
Thank you very much to Julie Souders for heading up Operation Christmas
Child this year. Thank you to everyone who donated shoeboxes, gifts and
helped pack up the shoeboxes. The shoeboxes were packed on Sunday. We
asked Julie to share about Operation Christmas Child:
We
packed (and I mean PACKED ;-) 40 boxes on Sunday. There were three
other boxes brought in. I would like to give special recognition to
Katelyn Colon. She got some neighborhood friends together and they
packed and wrapped 18 boxes. I was very impressed that her efforts
netted half of the number of boxes packed on Sunday from the donations
of the rest of the church.
Today (Nov. 22) I dropped off a
total of 60 boxes at Noland Road Baptist. It was amazing to see the
semi trucks full of boxes that had been dropped off. I am appreciative
to everyone who helped.
FYI, there are prayer cards on the
welcome table with specific prayers for each day that we can pray as
the boxes make their way to their final destination.
Blessings, Julie
