Operation Christmas Child Shoeboxes

Throughout the year we have been collecting many items for Operation Christmas Child Shoeboxes.   There are several ways you can still help with this project as we continue to work toward our goal of filling 150 boxes from EUMC as a group.

Over the next few weeks we ask for your help with bringing in items that are still needed from the list below. Donations can be placed in the tote by the coat racks near the office. In November, we will have our shoebox packing party and collect a special offering to help cover the shipping costs. (Suggested donation for shipping for each box is $9.)

And of course, if you enjoy filling a box of your own with gifts to send, we will gladly take as many of them as you want to fill. Gift ideas are on the back. We even have boxes you can use. Thank you for all your help with this project!
