God has sent us angels who provided 75%+ of the items for this year’s Operation Christmas Child shoeboxes. Susanne Ginn and her team of Christian volunteers at the Okotoks second hand store, scour donations and are given access for the shoebox mission. It is truly amazing what these ladies do, as God’s workers, giving hope to needy children and their families. As well as providing items, the ladies are the ultimate recyclers, using old shirts and sheets to sew pencil cases, eating utensil bags, and marble and hair accessory pouches! With stores providing fewer and fewer end-of-season sales (which were our main source of items for many years) these ladies make this project possible. We provide some financial support for items they purchase. Donations to help these ladies will be gratefully received. Mark your envelope Attn Suzanne’s Operation Christmas Child project.
