Special Offering for OCC Special Pack - August 30
God is giving us the opportunity to be His hands and feet and to share the hope
and Good News of the gospel through sending OCC shoe boxes.
This year Fellowship has an opportunity to pack 2400 shoe boxes
during our church wide packing party in October.
These shoe boxes will go to hard to reach areas all around the world. In light of the pandemic, this may be one of the only ways you can be directly involved in sending the gospel around the world this year.
On August 30, we will be taking a special offering for the October packing party.
To cover the costs of all boxes, including shipping, will take $38,400.
