Christmas  Offering
In December, we are taking up a special offering for the Operation Christmas Child Special Pack (held in October 2024).
The gifts received will determine the number of boxes we are able to send. To send each gospel opportunity (box), it costs $20 for items, transportation, and the tools needed to share the hope found in Christ with a child. Please consider giving above and beyond your regular giving to the worthy cause of getting the gospel to sensitive areas that are difficult to reach. You can use the envelope in a seat near you or give online by selecting “Christmas Offering” from the options. For an idea of what we are trying to raise, last year we packed 2,600 boxes, which is equal to $52,000.
