Young Women Service Project
It’s that time of year again and The Young Women are teaming up with Samaritan’s Purse to send Christmas boxes to kids in 3rd world countries. The Young Woman did this service project last year and really enjoyed it so have decided to do it again. Your donations last year really helped us make this service project a success.
If you’re looking for ways to donate this Christmas Season this is a great opportunity. We are asking for donations for shipping the boxes and to help us fill the boxes with gifts for the kids. We have a goal of 50 shoeboxes. If you would like to donate to this cause please Venmo Sabrina Ward with donations.
(The cost of each box is about $25.)
We can’t wait to see where our boxes end up and to share our love of Christ with these kids.
Thanks for your support!

Thought of the Week
by Michael Cox
Hello Little Valley Ward,
This week for Come, Follow Me, we are study chapters 1 – 6 of the Epistle to the Hebrews. This is a beautifully written letter that has some of the best “Christology” in all of scripture. The author was trying to help encourage church members who had started to lose their faith in Jesus by proving to them that Jesus was the Messiah through Old Testament story and example. The author especially tried to help the people “go on unto perfection” (Hebrews 6:1) and reaffirm to the believers that Jesus is the “author of eternal salvation” (Hebrews 5:9).
We don’t know for sure who wrote the Epistle to the Hebrews but we do know that the author loved Jesus and by studying these words and attempting to apply them in our life we can become more like Jesus Christ and help those around us feel of His love and have a desire to learn more about Him.
