Operation Christmas child will be hosting an event called “Assemble the Shoeboxes” on Saturday, Nov 5 from 2-5PM. By sending boxes, we are part of proclaiming the Gospel as a demonstration of God’s love in a tangible way to children. Individuals, families, or groups may fill boxes. Packing 1 shoebox generally takes 15-30 minutes. You are invited to stay longer.

Our congregation has done a wonderful job donating items. We are still in need of 33 pencil pouches with closures, 8 big bars of soap, 65 wash clothes, 20 toothbrushes, 20 toothbrush holders, all size socks, and 70 flip-flops. There is a donation barrel around the corner from the Food Pantry box. Thank you for your participation in this congregational event.

Shoebox Shipping Costs
Each box costs $10 to ship.  Our target for boxes is 200 which will require $2,000 for mailing.  If you would like to donate for the shipping, please mark “OCC Shipping” on your check memo line.
