Oh the weather outside is frightful, but we’ve got some holiday news that is delightful! 🎄
We’ve got 94 days till Christmas, and we are so excited to share more about our upcoming IOTM with you! For October, we will be collecting items for Operation Christmas Child! This year at VBS, the kids collected an abundance of WOW items, so for this month’s item collection, we are looking for hygiene items such as: washcloths, toothbrushes, combs, hairbrushes, and hair ties. AND/OR school items such as: notebooks, coloring books for kids and teens, colored pencils, pencils, and pencil sharpeners.
Additionally, there is an Amazon Wishlist of Items if you are interested in purchasing an item from there. The link is below!

Please drop off any OCC items in the big gray bin for the month of October! Thank you for all of your generous donations month after month. You help make a positive impact in the community one item at a time!
All the items donated in October will be used for our OCC Packing Party on November 15th!
Want to come to the party? It takes place on November 15th at 2:00 pm! We will have hot cocoa, sweet treats, fun activities, and pack up all the shoebox gifts for OCC! Stay tuned for more exciting event details! 🎄❄️
