Operation Christmas Child
MONTHLY DONATIONS Our Missions Team is doing the monthly donations again this year for Operation Christmas Child. Each month we will highlight a different category and you can bring these items in and put them in the Christmas wrapped box next to the Missions table. Then in November, we will host a shoe box packing party and pack as many boxes as we can from all the donations!
Help feed the hungry in our neighborhood
Our next food collection emphasis day is November 10th. Our assigned item for this month is peanut butter. Canned goods and non-perishables are taken to the Southeast Gwinnett Cooperative Ministry to distribute to those in need. You can make a donation at any time in the collection bins – one is located near the wheelchair lift and one is in the Family Life Center (Gym).
