Christmas Missionary Care Packages

We will be sending Christmas packages to the missionaries serving from our Ward.  Beginning this Sunday we will have boxes out for any donations you might wish to make to these missionary care packages.  Some suggestions are as follows:

Pens                               
Mechanical pencils
Post-its                           
Small notebooks
Thank you cards             
Small stickers to pass along to children
Small bottles of lotion  
Hand sanitizer
Shampoo                       
Razors
Soaps                             
Drink mixes you add to individual water bottles
Dark socks                     
Ties (even ugly ones)
Deodorant                      
Chap stick
Beef jerky                        
Marshmallows
Peanut butter                 
Any candy like Reese's, Snickers, etc.
Crackers                          
Small boxes of cereal
Add water mixes for cookies

The boxes will be sealed shut and mailed immediately following our Tuesday Night Relief Society Meeting on November 16th.  This will give us time to make sure the Elders serving from our Ward have heard from us by Christmas.
