Operation Care Dallas-Christmas for the Homeless



THIS IS THE WEEKEND!
An opportunity to show the compassion Christ taught and demonstrated throughout His ministry!
Thank you each for signing up to help.

This Saturday, all youth and adults going, will meet at ORLC at 12 NOON. We will immediately leave at 12 NOON and go to the Dallas Convention Center.

Everyone is asked to wear a RED shirt (of any kind) They do not make enough t-shirts for all their volunteers (so they do not get stuck paying for a bunch of shirts they do not use)
but there may be some...
If any shirts are available, they are $5 (xl large and bigger are $7)
So...please try to find a RED shirt to wear.

We are being asked to please help with the outdoor activities they plan each year for children. They will have pony rides and a petting zoo. As of last Sunday, no one had signed up to help, so the coordinators asked us to please be willing to help there. Kendra Wallace is the point person for the outdoor children's activities. Clovie Johnston is the only other volunteer who expressed an interest. She is from another local church. I pray you will all be blessed by this opportunity to help "the least of these."
PRAY FOR SUNNY SKIES AND WARM WEATHER!

PLEASE remember to bring used or even new coats and jackets.
PLEASE remember to bring a NEW blanket (can be purchased for $5 at Wal-Mart)
Bring comfortable shoes and be prepared to WORK...knowing you will make a lasting impression on those who need Jesus Christ this Christmas!
Don't forget that RED SHIRT.
Please
eat something before you arrive at ORLC.
For those who come hungry...Janet Curry said she would buy some cheeseburgers (thanks Janet)

PARKING is $8
OR
there are self parking lots where you fold dollars and slip them in the slot. (about $4)

We will STAY there until 3:45 PM and
return to ORLC by 4:15 PM
Why stay after it is over?
They are in desperate need of helpers to clean-up and tear down all the “stuff” for the event
