Sunday, July 6, OCC will have a “Christmas in July” tree in the front sanctuary lobby. There will be envelopes on the tree. Please take one, put your name and donation amount on the envelope, and then drop the envelope in the sanctuary drop box. Collecting funds allows the team to shop for needed items in bulk and helps to fill more shoeboxes for the kids around the world!
