For September 2018
As we are entering our last phase of collecting for the shoe boxes, it is time to start packing them. There still may be items we need and encourage you to check the weekly bulletin for those items. We would also like to encourage the church family to pack a box. Even though you turn it in at our church, there is a way to track your box. We will leave information at the drop zones on how to get your label and track it to its destination.
If you have any questions or you would like to participate in pack-ing, please call:
