It was great to see so many people collecting boxes

last week, thank you!

We trust you’re having fun and being blessed with selecting items for your

special child, who the Spirit already knows will receive your box!

Boxes and all information will be available in the foyer again today and next

Sunday.

This is an exciting time when, over the next 2 weeks, we continue to put

together boxes of love for children who may never have experienced a gift at Christmas.

Plus they receive a great message about Jesus' love for them.

Our target this year is 250 boxes - we can do it!

If you provide your own shoebox, please ensure it is no larger than an A4

piece of paper. You can also Follow Your Box by registering online, printing off a label with a barcode and attaching it to your box http://operationchristmaschild.org.au

Please return your completed boxes between now and Dedication Sunday (14 September) The Market Stall is available again today There are a few items to buy for your boxes as well as general gift items with funds supporting Operation Christmas Child. Take time and have a browse! Pre- Ordered Agape Bags are available today .

Conformity I hate to be less than popular, I like to be liked. That’s bad? And sometimes it keeps me silent when I should speak out. That’s sad! Forgive me when I’ve said nothing, just to stay one of the gang, betrayed what I most believe in, and let the truth go hang! I want to speak out when I should, Lord, so give me the nerve I need. And if I must suffer for it You’ll grant me the grace. Agreed?
