Christmas at The Creek

Thursday, October 29th, 2009

hopeThis Christmas, our Willow Creek Baptist Church family will be partnering with HOPE Ministries of Des Moines. Our goal is to complete 30 Christmas Adopt- a-Family HOPE Boxes which will be given to families in need. During the month of November we will be collecting specific donations to be put in the boxes. Click Here to check the “Hope List” to see what is still needed and then sign up to donate below. The Pinnacle of “Christmas at Willow Creek” will be the Box Party which will be held on Sunday, December 6th at 6:00 pm. What’s a Box Party you ask? The Box Party is where we will assemble the boxes before they make their way to Hope Ministries. The Box Party will be a great time for singles, couples, and families. We’ve designed the party so that all can participate in putting together the HOPE Boxes. For those with children, it will be a great time to teach them why we help those in need. Bring your favorite Christmas cookies to share at the party.

Thank you so much to all who have signed up for items to bring! We ask that everyone bring those items by Sunday, November 29th, to help us prepare for the event.
