The shoebox program has begun at the Voice Of The Gospel Mission Church.
Our goal this year is to fill twenty shoeboxes with
Gifts that the church will donate to Samaritan Purse, who will distribute the shoeboxes to boys and girls all around the world who otherwise would not have anything for Christmas.
The shoebox program
is about more than just giving someone a gift. It's about sharing the love of Christ with a child. As well as bringing hope to a family where hope may no longer exist. Christmas is a time when we tell others about Jesus, His love, His mercy, and His compassion
for which He loved us.
As Christians, we are stewards and overseers over the children of God. James confirms such when he writes saying, pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans
and widows in their trouble and to keep oneself unspotted from the world as told in (James 1, verse 27).
This Christmas, we pray you will find it in your heart to help our Sunday School children surpass their shoebox
goal by donating to a worthy cause, such as Samaritan Purse. If you would like to participate in the shoebox program, you may do so in one of two ways:
1) phone (845) 344-1982, request a Free shoeboxes. Fill the
box with Christmas goodies
that are suitable for a boy or girl. When your box is full, phone the above phone number
and a pastor will pick up your box from your home.
Or, 2) you may donate any amount of money, and the Church will fill the shoebox with gifts in your name for you. Please make the check payable, To: The Voice of the Gospel Mission Church, 27 Fairfax Ave, Middletown NY 10940.
Please write shoebox Donation on your check. Thank you, and may God bless you for your generosity. Please read (MalachI, Chapter 3, verse 10).
