Outreach Committee Reminders

Thanks to all who donated canned and packaged food items at our Thanksgiving Day service! All food will be donated to the Salvation Army food drive.

Holiday care packages are being mailed this week to service members from our area whom we know: Blake Harrell, Michael Bell, Jamie Wayne, Jonathan Lee and Guy Allsup. Thanks to everyone who contributed items and cards to send to these young men serving our country in or near the Middle East!

Please send a special Christmas card this year to a recovering soldier. The address is

A Recovering Soldier
c/o Walter Reed Army Medical Center
6900 Georgia Avenue NW
Washington, DC 20307-5001


Also, please remember our Christmas Families and special Christmas offering schedule:

Sunday, December 14: Dedication of gift items for Christmas Family #1; last Sunday to contribute monetarily for Christmas toys and food for Family #3--a family with 3 small children ages 1, 3 & 5; and special Christmas offering for Regional Ministries

Sunday, December 21: Last Sunday to make a love offering for Family #2--a family with increased medical expenses over the past few years.

Let's make this Christmas a special one for these families and for our service men and women!
