Reminder: We are taking part in something called Operation Christmas Child again this year. With Operation Christmas Child, people across the country will fill shoe boxes with small toys, school supplies, hygiene items and other gifts. With a $7 donation (placed inside the box),  a child overseas will receive your shoebox along with literature explaining the good news of Jesus in their language during the Christmas season. (You can pay online and find out specifically out where your box goes. By making your donation online here using a credit or debit card you will receive a special shoe box label included in your e-mail receipt. Print or copy the label as many times as you need to attach to each of your boxes.)

If you want to contribute but not do a whole box, you can make donations to Operation Christmas Child Project in the offering or you can drop off items in basket in the foyer.

Please return the shoeboxes to us before Thanksgiving, and we’ll get them to the collection place.

Questions? Comment below or contact us for more info–or see Cindi or Jeff on Sunday and/or pick up a brochure in the lobby. If you’re interested, pick up a shoebox too!

Mother Teresa once said, “If you can’t feed a hundred, then just feed one.” Those words were taken to heart and feedONE was created as a Convoy of Hope initiative. Solutions to the problem of world hunger start with a warm bowl of nutritious food, which is the doorway to provide a child with an education, a healthier living environment, and most importantly — hope.

This November, you can provide meals for children in need by checking in on Facebook at Deep Water Church. Every 2 check-ins = 1 meal for a child in need. We’ve partnered with Reach and feedONE to make this opportunity possible. So, check in and do good!
