For Lorena, in Peru, it was a pair of light-up sneakers. For Alex, it was a candy cane. For Albert, a notebook, and for Perla, a toothbrush. The list could go on, each item and seemingly insignificant, yet God used each one as the catalyst to change lives. There are 100 million children like the above. The numbers are huge, but the impact is measured one by one. Lorena received her shoe box gift with the light up tennis shoes 10 years ago. Today, at 18, she is the leader in her Church and wants to serve in full time ministry. “I saved the booklet in the shoebox and read it often.” Perhaps that shoebox came from someone you know. Time is short. Get your shoebox ready. Pick up time begins Nov. 18th. Call Anne Givens at Gasper River Assoc Building 526-6913 or Peggy Drake at Drake’s Farm Service 526-3741. You will be blessed!
