Event Details
Demonstrate God’s love in a tangible way to children in need around the world.
Come for the FUN, FELLOWSHIP and FILLING shoeboxes!
With your help, we will pack 50 boxes to send to children around the world. Not only will they receive your special gift, they will also hear the Gospel.
At the event you’ll have a chance to capture and print a photo of yourself or your family, write a special note to the child who will receive your gift, pack your box, pray together over all the boxes, share in a devotional and enjoy cookies!
Please bring a “Wow” item and $9 to cover shipping for each box you’d like to pack and any other smaller toys, personal hygiene items or school supplies you’ll include in your boxes or share with the group. We will supply the boxes and labels!
Check out page 2 of this PDF for some gift ideas.
