So do not fear, for I am with you;

I will strengthen you and help you;

I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

OCC , MONDAY UPDATE

Thank you to the individual who handed me money last night to spend “as needed” for OCC. Our current plans are to look for more calculators and travel-size toys.

Thank you to the individual(s) or class(es) who was/were the first to put their gifts in the basket at the front of the church. The bags contained small cars, small dolls, and pretty colored pencils. The basket will be checked three times each week by two of our men.

Thank, too, to the individual who worked at home to remove some stubborn price stickers on notebooks and to the individual who returned filler paper that was counted out in preparation for placement in folders. That individual took another stack of filler paper to count out this week. Another person is working to draw pictures of cars on the bags that have been made for the small cars. Thank you to the seamstress who made the bags and the artist who is drawing the cars.
