We also need help in One City Tots (ages 0-3) and One City Kids (ages 4-8) on Serve Day so families can participate in the outreach. Please know, children ages 9+ can participate in Serve Day as long as they are with their parent or guardian at the project site.

2023 One City Cares Giving Tree

The One City Cares Giving Tree is dripping with opportunities for you to give back this Christmas. The first opportunity is to purchase visa gift cards for the Harvest House Angels to care for the program participants’ basic, day to day needs. Look for the ivory tags on the Giving Tree!

We have also adopted a Kings Club family of 7. Just a little bit about this beautiful family…they are led by a strong single mom with 2 boys and 4 girls, 2 of which are twins…the 8 year old little girl has cerebral palsy and will have surgery in the new year. They’ve also been moving from transitional housing to living with family after their last home had irreparable roof damage but thankfully, they’ve just moved into a rent home. Let’s bless this family with an amazing Christmas! Look for the blue tags on the Giving Tree!

Lastly, we are partnering with Buckner Beaumont to bless local boys and girls in and out of foster care. Look for the green tags on the Giving Tree!

We will be collected gifts from now until Tuesday, Dec 12th. Please bring all gifts UNWRAPPED so we know what has come in. For more information about the Giving Tree, contact Pastor Amy Everett at the church office 409-892-8475, ext 2226 or email [email protected].

Shoes for Orphan Souls- Buckner International

By

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!
