First UMC, 310 S. Main Street, Lexington, NC 27292, is the OCC Shoebox Relay Center in Davidson County.
As the shoeboxes from all across the community are delivered at the State Street entrance, volunteers receive and pack them in larger shipping boxes for delivery to the OCC Processing Center in Charlotte, NC via tractor-trailer truck.
Each September, a Community OCC Kick-Off is hosted at First UMC to give people the opportunity to get their supplies for their church and/or community campaign.
OPERATION CHRISTMAS CHILD 2021
Children Helping Children
Judy Deal has been shopping all year for the perfect items to be packed into an Operation Christmas Child shoebox and is ready to share those items with you. If you are interested in having a shoebox packed with these wonderful items, please donate $25 per shoebox no later than Friday, Nov 5. You may give your donation to Judy Deal or Alma Carlton.
The children of the church are going to take the wonderful items that Judy has purchased and have an outdoor Operation Christmas Child shoebox packing party at the home of Judy & William Deal on Sunday, November 7 at 4pm. The shoeboxes that will be filled will be those that have been paid for by individuals in the church along with monies that the Missions Committee has provided. We will also have a wiener roast after packing the shoeboxes. If your child, along with their family, can attend this event, please let Judy Deal know no later than Saturday, November 6.
