Pacifica Young Adults Group (YAG) and Church of the Highlands Young Adults Ministry (YAM) are teaming up next Friday night, November 7, 2008 to assemble shoeboxes with toys/school supplies for children in difficult situations across the globe as a part of the Samaritan's Purse Operation Christmas Child ministry.This will the first of many co-organized events between YAG and YAM, and it would be great to have as many of us YAGgers show up. Also if you can't make it but want to make a donation, or help with the shopping, I'm planning on going to the dollar store next Thursday evening, November 6th so let me know (youngadults.newlife@gmail.com). Each box is supposed to have $7 worth of toys/school supplies, so we'll take any help we can get--if your parents, friends, etc. want to donate a dollar even, it would be appreciated and going to a great cause. As we only recently were asked by YAM to join them in this and they have been planning on doing this for a while, I think they've raised a decent amount of money, but it would still be nice to contribute. We're also planning on doing some icebreakers/games to get to know one another and there will be pizza and snacks. Please let me know as soon as you know if you can make it and let me know if you need a ride. Again, while I realize this is rather short notice, it would be wonderful if a solid group of us could go, as this will kind of be the kick-off of our collaborative work with YAM.
So to recap...
