DoorKeepers, if you are available tomorrow, November 24, at 11:30AM, please assemble here at the church to help load trucks with Operation Christmas Child boxes then unload at Hope Church.  We will take you to lunch afterward.  Please let Bethany Henry or Debbie Stevens know if you will be able to attend.

Are you packing a shoebox to share the love of Jesus with a child in need on the other side of the world?  Monday, November 24, noon,  is the deadline to turn them in.  We are also continuing to raise funds for the shipping and processing of the boxes we packed as a group.  You can give through the offering by indicating “OCC” on the memo line of your check.
