Outreach for Christ Christmas Toy Ministry
Last year they gave away toys to about 2500 children. Our church bought hundreds of
dollars of toys and several families delivered some of them to children of inmates. It
was a great joy for all who did it.
Here’s how you can help:
Outreach for Christ needs helpers to clean and bag toys. They need help fixing
bicycles. They need help mailing toys and delivering them to local addresses. Toys will
start to to delivered on Dec 6 and go out for two more weeks or so.
If you can give them a few hours to help at their warehouse, please call them to confirm
when you are coming and what yo want to do: Call (757) 498-4700
