Operation Christmas Shoebox

We're pleased to announce that all 50 shoe boxes have been taken home to be filled! It is our prayer that with your help, we can faithfully minister to these 50 children. We will collect the boxes in early November and then deliver them to the Dearborn collection location. If you have questions, please see Camilla McKee.

Kids for the Lord

We are still in need of several volunteers to sign up for our Prayer Partners program. If you can pray, then you are qualified and we NEED you! The purpose is to have someone, other than a parent or grandparent, praying for each of our kids in class. All that is required is a willing heart to pray regularly for the child you will be given and to occasionally send them a card or small gift letting them know you are praying for them. I cannot stress how important it is to make sure they received a physical token as a reminder of your prayers for them. If you would like to volunteer to be a part of this program, PLEASE sign up as soon as possible. We would like to assign all children by November 7.

Thank you!

Sandy McGlassion
