The teachers and staff need volunteers to cover their classrooms/offices during their Thanksgiving luncheon on Nov. 20. The luncheon starts at 1 but they are asking that the volunteers arrive at 12:50 to report to the classrooms and receive instructions.

The teachers will have planned activities for the kids, so it should be fun and fairly simple.

The Gifting Project is back at OUES to help make the holidays special for 75 DFW children in need! Sign up below to sponsor an angel or to provide a much-needed gift card or bulk toy/gift donation. Donations will be collected during car line on Thursday, December 5th.
