We are in the middle of Operation Christmas Child Collection Week. Our parking lot has a huge tractor trailer in it waiting to be filled with boxes for deserving children around the world. Our side street parking has been busy each day this week with generous community members and churches bringing hundreds of boxes to our collection site. Our collection goal is 6000. Sarah Stokes, our leader, asked for a truck that would hold 7500! So far this week the center has collected 2242 shoe boxes. Our church has donated 488 of these. Last year our church packed 674 boxes. Please consider packing a box or two to help us match last year's box count! The collection center is open for 4 more days.
Here are some pictures of the OCC Volunteers hard at work!!
