OPERATION CHRISTMAS CHILD Merry Christmas from Operation Christmas Child. Yes, it’s that time of year already. We are offering two different size boxes, one plastic and one bigger cardboard shoebox that are available on the Narthex table. Shoeboxes are to be returned on November 17. We will also take an offering that day for those who find it more convenient than packing a shoebox. The offering will purchase agricultural items such as oxen, goats, chicks, etc. for families in need through Samaritan’s Purse. If you have any questions, please contact Charla Sandbulte at 507-227-1722.
