This is an ongoing campaign to let our service personnel know that we have not forgotten them and that we care about them and are praying for their safety.

All it takes is collecting various items that we might take for granted.  The box is packed with an inventory list for the U.S. Customs. 

Once the box is packed with prayers and love, and the items in which are given by church members, we ship it to one of the soldiers that we have the privilage of knowing about.  The box only costs $12.50 to mail. 

Our team normally hears back via the family members at church, that their loved one has received a box and how it lifted their spirits, to know that we are praying for them.  We also hear that the solider almost always shares the contents of the box with their fellow soldiers.

HOW CAN YOU GET INVOLVED:

1. If you know of a solider away from home.  PLEASE contact the Missions team at church with their name and mailing address.
2. Donate $12.50 to mail the box
3. Donate items that can go into the box to the solider, just drop the items off at the Missions table in between services on Sunday.
