Come Join us as we celebrate the giving spirit together by packing donated Christmas gifts into shoeboxes for children in poverty stricken developing countries.
Getting Ready for the Packing Party!
Step 1: Check out the link below for gift suggestions. Get enough items for a box or two. Or you can pick up a bunch of the same kinds of items to spread over many boxes at the Packing Party. Age groups range from 2-4, 5-9, and 10-14 for boys and girls. This is a great activity if you have kids in this age range and want to practice giving gifts.

Step 2: On Saturday, November 23 at 5:30pm bring all the gifts you brought to our Packing Party at Denver South SDA Church. We will have a pizza dinner, provided by The Rocky Mountain Conference Youth Department, a quick worship, and then we will begin packing the boxes and getting them ready to ship around the world.
It is going to be a fun event for all ages. Bring your family, kids, siblings, aunts and uncles, grandparents, friends and neighbors. We look forward to seeing you there! For more information contact Brent at the Youth Department at 612.590.0564.
Aren’t available to join us for the packing party? Consider donated supplies, such as the items listed below, for our packing party participants to pack into gift boxes during the packing party. Also, consider sharing this giving opportunity, with your family, friends, coworkers, and church.
