It’s almost Christmas! Let’s partner with Samaritan’s Purse to pack gift-filled shoeboxes for children in need around the world. Mark 10:14 reminds us to let the children come to Jesus; each shoebox is an opportunity to share the Gospel and show God’s love. To participate, pick up some shoeboxes and labels in the church foyer. Then, go shopping for gifts — click here for gift suggestions. Remember to pray for the children before returning your packed shoeboxes to the designated area in the foyer by November 17. Thank you for your generosity!

Open every Sunday after service
Our Hope Kids resource library, located upstairs next to the nursing room, has a growing and diverse range of titles, from picture books to parenting guides, catering to both children and parents. Our library is open on Sundays. For security reasons, during service hours, the doors to the kids' area remain locked. However, after the service, parents and children are encouraged to browse the collection freely. We've also made it more convenient for you by putting our library catalog on the Church Center app, allowing you to explore books from the comfort of your home and borrow them when you come on Sunday. When you're ready to borrow or return, simply head over to the Hope Kids registration desk, where our friendly team will be ready to assist you.
