Pack a box for a boy or girl in another country to experiene the joy of Christmas and the message of Jesus. Boxes are available in the church foyer. The cost of shipping is $9 and can be included with the box when you return it to Redonda Heitman at church.

Need helping packing? This is a re-vamped list of ideas. Some are suggestions from missionaries on the field who have seen the needs of the children first-hand.

BEST GIFTS

  • Soccer balls- all boys want one sending a deflated ball with a hand pump is good
  • New short-sleeved shirts with no writing or pictures
  • Small flashlights w/batteries few families have them
  • Good quality melamine plate, bowl and cup
  • Pencils, erasers, colored pencils and sharpeners ink pens in black. blue, red. and green ink. they need these colors for school

GREAT GIFTS

  • Marbles
  • Harmonica
  • Simple watch for the older kids
  • Socks
  • Baby doll with light brown skin and no hair
  • Toy cars, trucks, airplanes with bigger wheels
  • Jump ropes
  • Band aids

Just keep mind toys that are more universal that a child could play with without instructions. Other items are also acceptable, these were just on their suggested list. No candy. All boxes  need to be returned by the second Sunday in November.
