OPERATION CHRISTMAS CHILD

Yesterday, we were blessed to get a good deal on t-shirts, underwear, and socks for our shoeboxes. Thank-you to a children’s Sunday School class and Mrs. Mildred Birch for the funds to help with these purchases. After that, the mail brought a check from Mrs. Carolyn Raborn. More shopping is in out future. We have been blessed in our shopping this year! Children will be blessed with additional clothing this year.

I hope you have heard about “Shoeboxes” being delivered to children in Ukraine before the invasion and a field hospital that has been erected by Samaritan’s Purse to help in treating those injured there.

Southern Baptists have many people working with the refugees and giving encouragements in many ways. Thank-you, International Mission Board, for representing us as you served.

There are many people giving of themselves to be the “Hands and feet” for us. Pray for each individual in need and each person giving of themselves to help meet needs.

OCC WORKDAY AT FBC, KENTWOOD

We will meet at 9:00 this morning to help prepare items for packing our “Shoeboxes” in the coming months. Be a part of packing pencil bags, health kits, and other components of the “Shoeboxes”.Working together is a real blessing. We can use lots of “Helping Hands” this morning. You are invited to bring a friend and a possibly a snack to share. You will be blessed.
