Operation Christmas Child
Today is THE last day to drop off Operation Christmas Child shoeboxes. Please bring your boxes to the church this afternoon so they can be processed and packed before being shipped to the collection center.
Also, if you have yard signs, please turn those in TODAY! On December 11, we will reveal the total number of shoeboxes packed and processed, so you won’t want to miss it!
During the loading process, it would be incredibly helpful to have additional dollies/hand trucks available. If you have one of these we could use, please bring it to the church today. You can pick it up tomorrow after the loading process is complete.

The process is quick, fun, and gives options for you to choose from to fill the box with great items. Plus, your online boxes will count towards Fellowship’s goal of
7,000. Go to fellowshipconway.org/occ or scan the QR code to go to the website to get started. Every box is a Gospel Opportunity and a community hearing the transforming message of Christ.
