Children all over the world need the hope of Christ, and a simple shoebox packed full of new gifts can show a child in an underserved country the hope and love found in Jesus. Once again, we are excited to partner with Operation Christmas Child and show a child that they matter and are not forgotten this Christmas season. Boxes, and packing information, are available in Fellowship Hall Oct 30, Nov 6 and 13. Return filled boxes the week of Nov 14-21.
For our "IN" season, we are asking all of you to invite a person (or people) in our congregation you haven’t hung out with or gotten to know before, and meet up with them for coffee, get together for dinner, or even go to a concert together, and “fill an empty chair.” Take a photo with the people and send it to communications@fpctacoma.org
