Operation Christmas Child:
It is time to start building boxes for Operation Christmas Child. We have 250 boxes to fill with toys, school supplies, hygiene items, etc. to help out kids around the globe. COG is also going to help at the distribution center on Dec 4th from 6-10pm. There are spots for 40 people and Covid-19 rules will be followed. Volunteers must be at least 13 years old. Boxes must be back by Nov 22nd. For delivery due to the office being closed until 11/23/20, or if you have questions or want to sign up for a volunteer spot, email Mitty Spidell. You can also learn more about Operation Christmas Child by going to their website.

Southeast Aurora Christian Homeschool Co-op:
Our next meeting will be at COG from 9-11 am on November 13th. We will have missionaries join us and share their experiences in Africa. They run a nonprofit called Crutches 4 Africa. The main speaker, David, was struck with polio as a child and the Lord has put it on his heart to help others receive mobility devices. If you have any old crutches or walkers, please bring them to donate.
If you are interested in joining us or have questions, please contact Lisa Dole at 720-299-4801, or visit our Facebook page at SE Aurora Christian Co-op. We would love to have you keep this group in your prayers as well.
Church Ministry: Olin & Park Hill Thanksgiving update
The plan is to bring all prepared food to COG on Thanksgiving (11/26) between 11:00 am and 11:20 am. A group will assemble "to-go" style meal packages to be taken to the Olin and Park Hill. We have created an online sign-up for all needed items.
To help with the process, please bring all food in disposable containers. We are asking you to prepare enough food to serve 10 people per item that you sign up for. You can sign up to bring as many items as you wish. For example, if you wish to make enough stuffing for 20 servings, sign up for two stuffing spots. If you want to make mashed potatoes for 10 servings and gravy for 10 servings, sign up for one of each spot. Click the link to sign up. Sign-Up Here
