It’s the Shoebox Packing Event!

 Saturday, November 16

Shepherd of the Hills Lutheran Church
1350 Hwy. 175 in Hubertus, WI 53033

Note: We are also the Central Drop Off site for packed shoeboxes during Collection Week: Nov. 18 – 25.

REGISTER HERE:  OCC PACKING EVENT

Help us pack 1,000 shoebox gifts over two days for children in need in Third-World countries.

THE DETAILS:

  • The amazing journey of a simple shoebox gift begins with you and each shoebox shares the message of the gospel to children around the world.’
  • We will have one big assembly line set up in our fellowship hall.
  • We will also have a craft area in our fellowship hall. Everyone will have the opportunity to make a few crafts for the first 15 – 20 minutes to pack in their shoeboxes.

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED (needs will be advised later this year):

  • We are looking for several volunteers, pre-event, to continue to make crafts (cross beaded necklaces, foam cross crafts, and Christmas cards) while others work on packing shoeboxes. Your craft creations will be used to pack into our shoeboxes!
  • Interested in serving the day of the event? In addition to packing shoeboxes, volunteers are needed to help run the event on Saturday.
  • There will be a Bake Sale to benefit Operation Christmas Child shoebox shipping costs during the packing event. We invite you to donate individually wrapped baked goods and/or shop our bake sale as you volunteer at our packing event. Sign up below to bring bake sale donations.
