• AGAPE Christmas Shoe Box Project

  

  AGAPE Shoe Box Project       is to bring a bit of Christmas cheer to children in Armenia.

  Project AGAPE is a collaborative effort of both United Methodist conferences in North Carolina.

  The 2019  Project AGAPE project begins with a few changes, so be sure to read carefully.  Individual items will be accepted or you may put together an entire plastic box.  There are a few plastic​ boxes available in the Fellowship Hall to fill and a donation box for individual items.   If you purchase boxes to fill they must be 6 qt. plastic shoe boxes....no cardboard boxes can be accepted.  

  Please pick up the packing sheets and complete instruction in the Fellowship Hall.

  Please be sure to heed the list of approve​d items for each age group and the instructions on how to fill a box.

  Salem will pay shipping for boxes.

  Completed boxes or donated items must be turned in by September 22, 2019 to the Fellowship Hall.  If you have any questions, please contact Sally Simpson (email: tss27530@bellsouth.net).

           ​Thank you for your support!                                Let's get started!
