October is Operation Christmas Child season! Please join us in helping with this worthwhile effort sponsored by Samaritan’s Purse to send Christmas gifts and the gospel to children worldwide. This year the Haines Community Collection is being coordinated by Port Chilkoot Bible Church (PCBC); all community members are welcome to participate packing boxes here or in our online Haines group! Our goal as an entire community this year is to pack 27 physical boxes and 27 online boxes. So far we have 10 and six respectively. Physical boxes are due to PCBC Nov. 1. Online boxes are due Nov. 3. Access instructions or pack a box online @ samaritanspurse.org/Operation-Christmas-Child. Follow the pack a box heading, scroll to page bottom, goal search for our community group under zip ‘99827’ to join Haines’ effort & goal! Or even easier, follow this link: https://sampur.se/3rovuqw [I agree, it looks like the period is in the wrong place but pur.se is correct :-)]. For free OCC shoeboxes to use, questions or resources locally, contact Matt Jones @ PCBC @ 907-314-2429. Merry Christmas and Thank you for sharing love and light!!!!
