MISSIONS - CHAIRPERSON ~  Nancy   moorman

The   Missions   Committee   works   to   provide    assistance    to    people   in    need

The three main projects that the Missions Committee focuses on are a clothing drive in the spring,
Christmas Shoe Boxes for children around the world who are in need, and
​Christmas meals for the seniors who are on Meals on Wheels in Comfort, Texas.

      The mission of Operation Christmas Child is to demonstrate God’s love in a tangible way to children in need around the world. Through this project, Samaritan’s Purse partners with the local church worldwide to share the Good News of Jesus Christ and make disciples of the nations.
     Samaritan’s Purse has collected shoebox gifts filled with toys, school supplies, and hygiene items for children around the world. Since 1993, more than 209 million children in more than 170 countries and territories
 have received an Operation Christmas Child shoebox. The project delivers not only the joy of what, for many kids, is their first gift ever, but also gives them a tangible expression of God’s love.  Tens of thousands of volunteers from local churches around the world partner with us to present the Gospel of Jesus Christ at festive outreach events where children are surprised with these shoebox gifts.
