Join us on Saturday, December 12th, for an opportunity to serve with Operation Christmas Child at their processing center in Boone, North Carolina! We will spend the afternoon from 1:00–5:00 PM helping prepare shoebox gifts for distribution to children around the world, sharing the love of Christ through this meaningful ministry.

Also, space is limited to 10 participants, so be sure to register early to reserve your spot!


We will depart from the church at 8:00 AM and stop for lunch on the way to Boone. After serving at the processing center, we will stop for dinner on our return trip and plan to arrive back at the church around 9:00 PM.
