Please Remember – Operation Christmas Child 2012
The Power of a Simple Gift! Gift boxes need to be returned to the church by Wednesday November 14th. Be sure to include a donation of $7.00 per box to cover the shipping costs. Please pray that God will touch the heart of every child who receives a shoe box gift!
Thanksgiving Baskets This year we will be providing a holiday meal for people and families in need at Thanksgiving rather than Christmas. If you would like to help we could use non-perishable holiday meal food items and cash gifts to purchase meat. You may place your food donations in the blue barrel in the main hallway and you may designate your gifts “Thanksgiving meals.” Please have your donations to the church by November 11. For questions you may contact Beth Knorr at 541-261-0642 or at knorrmal@gmail.com.

If you are planning to provide pie for the luncheon please sign up at the receiving station Nov. 4th, to help us be certain we have an adequate amount. (Anticipated need is 12-15.) Items Needed: 3 or 4 card tables, 1 large ice-chest (labeled with your name) and youth group volunteers to help serve during the luncheon.
