CHURCH PICNIC
Thank you for joining us!
Join us for a church-wide picnic at the Watauga High School football field. All are welcome to participate in bringing a side or dessert to share. Alliance will provide the main course of hotdogs, burgers, and chips. You’ll have the chance to drop off your Summer of WOW Operation Christmas Child items that you’ve collected this year. For Summer of WOW item ideas, please visit abfboone.org/occ. We’re excited to spend a Sunday afternoon as a church family!
Alliance’s goal is to collect 3,000 shoeboxes by packing in the home and at church.
Samaritan’s Purse delivers these boxes to children all over the world and teaches a gospel-centered discipleship program called The Greatest Journey.
