Hello from Roscoe, Illinois
Pastor Lisa Abb, from First Congregational Community Church of Roscoe, IL (right on the IL/WI border so part of our state association) checked in with me today. Their congregation has focused on filling Operation Christmas Child shoe boxes throughout the year. Instead of just filling boxes at Christmastime, the members stayed focused throughout the year on this very important mission ministry. In addition to this mission, FCCC works alongside the Rockford Rescue Mission.
