Christmas at Sea
The goal of the Christmas at Sea Program is to give a ditty box (a shoebox filled with gifts) to every seafarer arriving in Delaware during the holiday season. Last year the Seamen’s Center of Wilmington provided gifts to over 1,000 mariners. The boxes are filled with essentials (all full-sized), a hand-knit hat and scarf, and a few goodies.
The Mission & Congregational Life Committee invite you to pick up a shoe box (list of items inside or click here) in the back of the sanctuary on Sundays. We will also have some boxes available just outside the Church Office. We recommend you shop at your local Dollar Store to find the requested items at a very reasonable cost. If you cannot find all the items, don’t worry – we’re willing to provide the hard-to-find products.
Ditty Boxes should be brought to church by Sunday, November 24.
