Blessings for Obedience
Scripture: 2 Samuel 6:1-15; 7:1-29 David not only had a lot of faith in God, but also his heart loved God. He continued to demonstrate obedience towards God to show Him that David loved Him. This reminds us to continue to be obedient to God. We will be having a special guest named King David to share with us his experience and his love towards God. What is Operation Christmas Child? Operation Christmas Child is a hands-on way for Canadians to bless struggling children in the developing world by filling shoeboxes with toys, hygiene items, school supplies, and other items. We collect the boxes and distribute them in the name of Jesus Christ to children living in desperate situations. Instructions: 1. Choose Age and Gender 2. Pack your box 3. Write a Christmas Card 4. Pray over your box and the child receiving 5. Include $10.00 in the envelope for shipping 6. Drop off at Edmonton Chinese Alliance Church by November 15 Suggestions of Items to pack: Toys: Include items that children will immediately embrace such as toy cars, yo-yos, jump ropes, balls, toys that light up and make noise (with extra batteries), etc. School Supplies: pens, pencils and sharpeners, crayons, markers, notebooks, paper, solar calculators, coloring and picture books, etc. Non-liquid Hygiene Items: toothbrushes, bar soap, combs, washcloths, etc. Accessories: T-shirts, socks, hats, sunglasses, hair clips, jewelry, watches, flashlights, etc. A Personal Note: You may enclose a note to the child and a photo of yourself, your family, or group. If you include your name and an address, the child may be able to write back. Since the new school year has started and I have not seen your children for a long time, I would love to update the Children's Ministry information just to keep track and even stop asking, "What grade are you now?". We would love if all our parents from JMC Children and Youth to fill out this form for Uncle Andrew and I to keep track and send out info regarding the plans for the upcoming school year. If there are new parents joining us, please pass it on and fill it out as well! https://emc.ecac.ca/ministries/childr...
