We are heading back to SE Kentucky to work with our ministry partners! This time, we'll be packing Christmas boxes for kids in some of the poorest counties in America.
We'll be staying in a house that one of our past teams helped clean and repair. It's unfurnished, but the bathroom does work, so bring an air mattress and a towel.
Cost: $100 per person + money for food while traveling.
Applications are available outside Susie's Office and online.

Operation Christmas Child
National Collection Week is November 17–24, and Snyder’s Shoebox Dedication Sunday is November 23! Boxes are ready for you in the Gathering Hall and Cammack Lobby.
Take one home, fill it with gifts for a boy or girl, and bring it back by November 23. You can leave completed boxes in the Gathering Hall.
A way to display Christ-like love: Each shoebox is a simple gift that shares God’s love and brings joy to a child who might not otherwise receive one.

Grow the Tree!
Help Us “Grow” the Singing Christmas Tree!
Sunday, November 9 - Wednesday, November 12
It takes a team to bring the Singing Christmas Tree to life! From unloading and assembling the steel frame, to laying walkways, adding the wooden “skin,” building side platforms, and finally covering everything with paper, felt, lights, bows, and garland — every step is a group effort.
Help us "Store" The tree!
Tuesday, December 9 - Saturday, December 13
We need plenty of hands to help us deck and undeck the halls, so please consider a time to help us take down the tree to ensure we'll be ready for worship in the Sanctuary the following Sunday!
If you’d like to join in the fun, click below to sign up and be part of one of Snyder’s favorite Christmas experiences. Thank you in advance for your help!
