November 15 is just around the corner but there is still time to pack and return a shoe box or to pack one online.
If you need help knowing what to pack or what not to pack, please check the Samaritan’s Purse website.

🎁 Operation Christmas Child – Important Update! 🎁
I’ve received several questions and realized I left out a few important details in my announcement at the Women’s Club General Meeting.
Here are a few clarifications:
📦 Shoebox Drop-Off: The deadline is Sunday, November 15, but you can drop off your filled shoeboxes anytime before then in the green tub in the foyer at the Lodge.
💵 $10 Shoebox Donation: The $10 per shoebox donation is paid directly to Samaritan’s Purse, not to me. I do not ship the boxes myself. I will deliver them to our area drop-off location at First Baptist Church in Gainesville.
The donation covers logistics, processing, Gospel materials, and local church training. Payment can be made by check or online by credit card. See the label and/or brochure inside your shoebox for details.
💻 Build a Shoebox Online: The QR code in the Communique isn’t working, so please use this link instead: https://sampur.se/4r2J0tY
Thank you for helping share the love of Jesus with children around the world! ❤️
Please contact me if you have any questions!
