Multiplication through a Shoebox!
In recent months at Tates Creek Christian Church we
have focused on multiplication in the Body of Christ and
one way we can continue that focus is to participate in
the ministry of Operation Christmas Child!
Our shoebox gifts allow us to “go
and make disciples of all nations”
as children receiving a gift hear
the Gospel and then are invited to
participate in “The Greatest Journey,”
a 12-week follow-up discipleship
program. This past year, 3 children came to Christ every
minute as a result of this program which also encourages
them to boldly share their new faith with others. As a
result God is growing and multiplying the Body of Christ
all over the world! The TCCC Women’s Ministry invites our
church during the month of October to join together to
pack 250 shoebox gifts for Operation Christmas Child. You
may use a standard size shoebox or pick up free boxes
in the Main Foyer. Please plan to return shoeboxes
to the Worship Center by November 5. If questions,
contact Shelley Maxwell via email at maxwell40514@
hotmail.com. For more information about Operation
Christmas Child or to learn how to follow your box, visit

Anniversary Sunday
November 5, 2017
We will be celebrating our 72nd anniversary next month.
As you may have heard, we are very close to paying
off our building debt. This year we will be collecting
an anniversary offering to assist with the“What If...”
campaign. Our goal is to collect $50,000. Please
remember that this offering is to be above and beyond
your usual offering for the general fund.
We look forward to celebrating our anniversary and
being debt free very soon! Thank you.
