Operation Christmas Child at Foxworthy Baptist Church
National Collection Week 2023 is only a few weeks away! Foxworthy
Baptist Church will once again serve as a Central Drop Off Center during
National Collection Week Nov.143-20. You are receiving this email because
of your past volunteer service or from an expressed interest in
volunteering this year. We are encouraged to know that our church
will be the beginning of a long shoebox journey culminating in a child hearing
and experiencing the Good News of Jesus Christ. Volunteers are still
needed. Please sign up here. If you are available for only a partial shift, please
note availability in the comments field.
The
following descriptions may help you match an assignment with your specific
skills and interests.
· Greeter/Host:
Smile, welcoming attitude, able to direct donors to next steps in the process,
collect donor information
· Packers:
Work with a partner to efficiently pack shoebox gifts into cartons
according to established directions with accurate counts

As with last year, collection and

Church are committed to ensuring that both donors and volunteers enjoy as safe an experience
as possible.
· We will
again offer a contactless, drive through option for donors, including the use
of a scannable QR code to collect donor information
· Limited
number of volunteer slots and shifts

drop in volunteers this year. If you are available to be “on call” for
the processing of large deliveries or end of day truck loading, please send me

Please feel free to forward this information to anyone who may
be interested.
