Samaritan's Purse Boxes

Reminder that the boxes for Samaritan's purse are due this Sunday!!

Full shoe boxes can be put on the table to the right as you come in the entry way.
 
If you need ideas for what to put in your box or directions, there are flyers on the table in the entry way.  
 
What you will do:  1)  Get a shoe box, 2) determine if you will have a box for a boy of a girl and what age group (2-4, 5-9 or 10-14), 3) Fill with gifts 4) It is optional if you would like to give $7 to help cover shipping costs, 5) Drop off at River by November 9th.  Place a rubber band around the shoe box to keep it closed.  6) Optional: you can enclose a note or photo for the child.
 
If you would like to support the project but don't want to fill a box please consider donating toward the shipping costs. 
 
Do not include:  Used/damaged items; war-related items; knives or military figures; chocolate or food; out-of-date candy; liquids or lotions; medications or vitamins; breakable items such as snowglobes or glass containers; aerolsol cans.
 
Also, there will be a pizza party for all the kids that participate on Friday, November 14 from 6:00-7:30.
