SUPPORT OUR TROOPS MINISTRY

Every month the Support Our Troops Ministry needs volunteers to gather together to fill boxes of supplies for our troops serving overseas. The body at CCCH donates the items that the boxes are filled with, for those who are fighting for our freedoms and those abroad. The soldiers that receive these care packages are very appreciative and often express their gratitude through handwritten letters. These soldiers are not only receiving the “physical” things that they are in need of, but also a demonstration of the love of Jesus Christ through our giving. Come join the Support Our Troops Ministry every 4th Saturday of the month from 9:30AM to 1:00PM and be blessed!

If you’d like to help provide some of the items for the care packages, please see the list below.

Portions of a letter we recently received:

This is to all who so graciously gave in a care package that ended up at 3/6 H&S company,
currently based on the east side of Fallujah.

I was in visiting the company office this morning when I was handed a couple of ziplock
bags full of “stuff.” Stuff that most people take for granted, but are so wonderful to receive
here. More so than what was given, I appreciated the opportunity that you all took to give
out of love. It means so much to these marines that someone out there cares enough to send
this sort of thing. And just so that you know, every time I get something like this, I put the
Bibles and “scriptually sound” materials out, and it is taken by the marines within a short
amount of time. The potential seed that you are planting out here is seriously accepted. You
are giving marines an opportunity to tune in to the Spirit as He calls them and leads them
into His light. At about month 3 & 4, marines are getting the dear john letters, they are \
taking into consideration the questions of why am I here, why am I lonely, in what do I hold
my identity. This is where the Lord hasled me in my ministry. I come from Calvary Chapel
Jacksonville, NC. I am a worship leader when I’m home. While I’m out here, I get many
opportunities to talk to young marines and give guidance into their lives. It helps to have an
occasional drop of bible literature to reinforce what the Lord is doing out here, so - THANK
YOU for your obedience to the call to mail this “stuff ” out. You have been generous and
gracious with what the Lord has given. Make the most of every opportunity. Pray for us, pray
over the decisions being made that effect us. Pray that we would learn to find our IDENTITY
in Christ. He is the only one that is faithful and consistent in all that we do.

Blessings,
