Operation Christmas Child's "NATIONAL COLLECTION WEEK" is from November 14 - 21.  You can drop off your filled shoeboxes anytime that week between 9am - 4pm at Ascent Church located at 29823 Troutdale Scenic Drive.  The shoeboxes you pack will go to a child in some dark corner of the world, but your gift will bring the light of Christ to these children and their families.  There's still time to pick up your own shoeboxes to personalize...just stop by anytime during NCW.  Grab one for each member of the family.  Ascent Church is the area's designated drop-station for NCW.  Our mountain communities can have an impact on children of third-world countries this Christmas!
