Each month OCC collects various items that will be used during the Annual Packing Party which is held in November. For the month of October/November the item being collected is "Catch Up Month." These items can be whatever you'd like to get! All items need to fit inside an average shoebox. There is a collection box in our Sanctuary foyer or you can drop items by the church on Monday, Wednesday, or Friday between 8:30-11:30.
A Special Message from Rhianna!
We have a lot of items we are still in need of for the boxes, many school supplies! Things like pencil pouches, pens, drawstring bags, stuffed animals, jewelry, sunglasses, small toys for boys and girls, any of these items would be greatly appreciated! *PLEASE NO BINDERS AS THEY DO NOT FIT IN THE BOXES* (everything needs to be able to fit in the boxes. NO GLUE, LIQUIDS, DEODORANTS or BAR SOAPS ALLOWED)
Next month the shoe boxes are due and we're having our packing party with the kids on November 11th!! I will also have half of the social hall set up on Saturday November 14th (no designated time yet, will get back to everyone) to finish packing whatever could not be accomplished on the Wednesday of our packing party. Everything will be taken down after we have finished packing as many boxes as possible on Sunday November 15th!
Shoe boxes are due November 22nd! We will be loading and taking our shoeboxes to our area's designated site after morning services on this day.
