OHBC SUPPORT OUR TROOPS
PROGRAM OHBC
has a ministry of outreach to our military members from the community.
We will be sending packages to those serving our nation in a gesture of
Christian outreach. If you know of anyone deployed from our
area, or is a member of our church extended family, please contact the OHBC office. We are now accepting donations
in the office for this ministry.
We have moved the display
to the vestibule for more visibility. Photos of soldiers receiving
our gifts will be posted from time to time along to their addresses so
you can send personal cards.

Special Thanks
To Gayle
Koone for volunteering to help mailing out boxes for the Support
Our Troops. Five boxes were mailed out on Thursday. We
also received one new name this week, Charles Lilly, brother of
Jessica Lilly, a reporter with WVNS CBS/Fox 59 News. Jessica
recently did a feature on OHBC and our Support Our Troops Ministry
of WVNS. She shared her brother's story with us at that
time, and we sent a box out to him this week.
