Families brought their shoe boxes and cartons flowed in from relay centers. By 6:00 pm our hardworking volunteers had processed approximately 23,000 shoe boxes. Thank you for touching the lives of these children!
The first trailer was filled with 350 cartons, which represents from 4,600 to 5,000 shoe boxes, depending on the size of the individual shoe box. The loaded trailer goes to Denver for processing, and a new empty trailer is dropped off to start the process over again.
National Collection Week for Operation Christmas Child began on Monday, Nov. 16. As of 3:00 pm on Tuesday, we have processed 6,125 boxes, and our goal this year is 26,620.
We would like to take this opportunity to say "Thank You" to all who came out to support the 3rd Annual Fall Craft Show and Silent Auction. We had 59 vendors in attendance and over $2700 was raised to support the Youth Ministries. We really appreciate all who gave of themselves in every capacity to make this event a success!
