Wow...

Operation Christmas Child Shoebox mission ended today and out of your generosity and effort, CDC was able to donate 101 shoeboxes!!!!! Mike and Janet Hurley, who are heading up this effort for Asbury, were blown away by the number of boxes. Thank you so much for all you parents did! God is soooo good!!!

Reminders....

Tis the season with so much going on!!!!! We feel so blessed and thankful to be a part of Asbury and a member of the family of God!

Operation Christmas Child Shoebox mission ends this Friday, Nov 21st. Thank you so much for all the boxes that have already come in! You parents are great...fabulous...awesome!!!

If the falling economy hasn't hit you directly and you are able, let's keep giving for the less fortunate. Starting next Monday, Nov 24, bring in a new unwrapped toy for Toys for Tots and Upper Sand Mountain Mission! Every child will get a sticker for every toy they bring in and the teachers will be talking about this in their classrooms.

News!!!

Ms Barbara and Ms Kim's 4 year olds won on MWF with 13 Holiday Boxes!

Ms Robynn and Ms Cind's 3 year olds won on T/TH with 9 boxes!

You parents all did a fabulous job bringing in the food and also, complete boxes! We broke out record of last year's 75 boxes!!!

Now, please consider putting together a shoebox for our Operation Christmas Child Mission. Your child will enjoy being a part of this!

And also, starting the week of Thanksgiving, we will be collecting new unwrapped toys for Toys for Tots and Upper Sand Mountain Mission. We'll do this through Dec 12th! We are so excited to be fortunate enough to participate in these worthy missions.

A couple of reminders

CDC closed Tuesday, Nov 11 for Veteran's Day! Enjoy!

ImagineNation Book Fair - Is nearing it's end on Thursday, Nov 13th! We are seeing children with some large orders! Yea!!! Please consider ordering for Christmas presents and CDC will benefit from it! Check with your child's teacher for their "Wish List" if you want to donate a book to your child's classroom! We will have a special award for the individual Top Seller!

Holiday Food Boxes - CDC collected a total of 90 boxes!!!!! Woohoo!!!!! I have not announced yet which classes won the Ice Cream party. I will announce this on Wednesday!

Correction to Book Fair dates

I'm sorry but the dates for the start of the book fair are wrong. We started the ImagineNation book fair on Monday, Nov 3...not Dec 3rd!

Election Day - Tuesday, Nov 4

Asbury UMC is a voting location and we are anticipating large crowds, possible long lines for voting and a congested, crowded parking lot! Even though this will all happen in a separate building, we want you to be aware that we will move the car line that morning as quickly as possible and extend it up until 9:30 if the demand is there. Please keep this in mind when you are planning your morning and when you go vote, please allow enough time to pick your child up on time! Thanks so much!!!

Book Fair - Postponed

Due to us not receiving the correct order forms and waiting on the new ones, we will not start the book fair until Monday, Dec 3rd. It will now end on Nov 13th
