CELEBRATION AND ANTICIPATION
Hello Deer Flat
As we enter the month of November in anticipation of the holidays and all that it brings, we want to pause and celebrate a bit first.
OPERATION CHRISTMAS CHILD
- We have a group of ladies that have worked all year long making items, organizing, preparing boxes, packing boxes and more. This is an amazing group that helps us make this a success
- We had almost 100 people at the packing party which was a record number
- Over $5,000 has come in to help pay for supplies and shipping
- We are just under 1000 boxes at this point. If you have a procrastinated, we will take boxes through Sunday, but after that you will have to take them to another drop off.
- You can still build a box online HERE
- Thank you so much for your ongoing support of this missional effort
MISSIONS
- So far this year we have committed over $180,000 to almost 30 missions organizations and missionaries, locally and across the globe. That number will grow to almost $240,000 by the end of the year.
- We have dozens of Deer Flat people serving in missional organizations and efforts
- Thank you for your continued heart for missions and financial support of Deer Flat ministries and missions efforts!
