This was the Vacation Bible School project last summer, and it was a big success, as evidenced by the smiles on the faces of the children who received these bags at Christmas time. A large assortment of items was received from across the denomination. As materials arrived at the Mission Office in Huntington, Ind., a team of ladies from the local College Park UB church unpacked the boxes of gifts, sorted and repacked everything up into separate bags, and prepared the final shipping boxes. It was a huge job requiring many hours of volunteer work. A church filled with people during the Bolsa distribution.
