It's a Christmas tradition at Whitestone. As the holiday season approaches people gather after church to fill shoe boxes for Operation Christmas Child.
We finish up our coffee and cocoa and snacks...
And then begin to lay the goodies out on the tables.
It doesn't take long before we're organized and ready to fill each box as it is passed around the tables.
Each finished box is carried over and stacked.
And just like that we're finished. This year we filled 28 boxes for shipment.
Next stop: happy children in some place of need somewhere in the world, including this year Northern Iraq, where children and their families have been displaced by ISIS militants.
Democratic Republic of the Congo
That makes us very happy, too.
