We need all donated items to be shipped on Monday, December 6th, to ensure they get here in time for us to give them out on Christmas Day. The cheapest shipping method is to use Priority Mail APO/FPO Flat Rate Boxes from the US Postal Service that ship regardless of weight for $12.50 each. Please send boxes to the following address (note there is no street address, and Kandahar and Afghanistan are NOT included anywhere in the address):

Our troops sacrifice so much and we look forward to giving them a sense of “Home Away from Home” as they open their Christmas present from all the men and women back home in the states who are thinking about them.
Thank you for being a part of Operation Christmas for Our Troops!
Hi Sarah!!
ReplyDeleteThe parish is gathering all sorts of items to send to you. All items will be in the mail on Dec. 6th. Do you also need any Christmas bags or wrapping paper?
I am assuming these boxes will be coming to you personally. Would it be alright if I included a few books for the soldiers to read for their kids? I haven't gotten them mailed yet. Your family gave my kids so many games over the years you were babysitting them, we want to be able to help you and the soldiers. We pray for you daily!
love, Von Cain
