The holidays are not always the “most wonderful time of year” for SETX families in need. We will be collecting dry goods from Nov. 5-19th to help provide for the much anticipated Thanksgiving and Christmas meal for SETX families. Please bring your donated items to the One City Cares table in the Welcome Center and we will take care of the rest! For more information, please call Pastor Amy Everett at 409.892.8475, ext. 2226 or email [email protected].
We have another opportunity for you to give back at our annual Fall Carnival on Tuesday, October 31st from 5:30-8:00 pm. The LifeShare Bus will be at the Event Center so while you’re here, set aside just a few minutes to make a life changing donation.
Remember, your donation has the potential to save lives with every unit collected helping up to three people in need. To make an appointment and reserve your spot, go to onecity.church/drive. Appointments are highly encouraged for this one as there are limited spots on the bus to donate. We hope to see you there!
One City Cares will be hosting “Shoes for Orphan Souls”; a collection thru Buckner International here at One City now thru May 4th.
We are asking you to bring new shoes, both kids and adult sizes, as they will go to children up to age 18. Please know that many of these shoes will go to children currently walking barefoot in muddy, rocky terrain causing parasites and diseases stunting their physical development. Also, most schools require children wear shoes to be able to attend but for many poverty stricken families, shoes are a luxury they can’t afford.
Please drop your shoes off at one of the collection boxes by the Cafe or back entrance closest to the playground. Unable to shop for shoes? Go here and donate online!
