HISTORY OF OCC AND MVC!

 

May Valley Church joins Samaritan’s Purse to promote, collect, train, teach, and pack shoeboxes year round, in the name of Jesus!

May Valley Church has been packing shoeboxes for 10+ years both individually and as a Church.  

Every year we have several work parties where we gather and sort items to make our large packing party in Early November run smoothly. 

During the packing party we fill the shoeboxes with precious gifts. Our goal is that every shoebox is filled with items for needs and wants like: a pencil pouch with school supplies, dental pouch with hygiene items, a t-shirt, notepad, wash cloth, socks, toys, stuffed animals, fabric with sewing kits, cars, crafts and creative items, books.

Every box packed by May Valley Church goes out with a card telling them how much Jesus loves them and how much we hope they enjoy their box.

We have done some extra special projects along the way including handmade sewing kids, making journals, dresses, bead kits, and car mats.

In 2022 May Valley Church became a drop off site for the surrounding community.

All of this is made possible through donations of items, money and time from our church family as well as our community.

So exciting to see how God has increased the number of children blessed, each year!​​​
