ADVANCE: Be Involved!

Want to know how you can share hope and add value in your community? Check out Lifeline's ADVANCE initiative taking place this month!

On October 21, Lifeline Church will head out into the community to share hope and value, and we need your help!

Great America Adventure

Lifeline has invited homeless students from D300 for a day of fun at Six Flags Great America. In addition to tickets, each child will be provided with $20 spending money.

A small group will head to downtown Chicago to hand out clothes and food to the homeless. Donations needed include socks, gloves, hats, and food for making sandwiches.

Operation Christmas Child

Each year, Operation Christmas Child collects shoeboxes filled with school supplies, toys, hygiene items, and clothing and sends these Christmas gifts to children around the world. Please visit www.samaritanspurse.org/occ to learn more about this program and to find out what items to include (and not include) in your shoebox!

Lifeline Church meets on Sundays from 10 – 11 am at Brunswick Zone located at 1611 S. Randall Road, Algonquin. (We won’t, however, be meeting on October 21 due to ADVANCE activities.) Please bring donations for Urban Plunge or Operation Christmas Child on Sunday, October 14. Monetary donations may also be mailed to Lifeline Church PO Box 7268, Algonquin, IL 60102. If you have questions, or need other ways to get donations to Lifeline, please send me a message: johnspatchblog@gmail.com.

Thank you!
