Mercy Teams International

Christmas 2006 will be our 3rd year of Christmas Gift Boxes. Our Target this year is 2000 Shoe boxes lovingly filled with presents.

The Christmas gifts will go out to ;

Mums and Babies residing in Bangkok Prisons,

Refugee Children on the Burma Border,

Street Children in Vientienne, Laos

Village Children in Kampong Spue, Cambodia

Children at Risk in Phnom Penh, Cambodia

Child tsunami survivors in Banda Aceh, Indonesia.

Schools, Churches, Businesses, Clubs, Sunday Schools, Kindergartens, and individuals are invited to participate. We accept donations to cover the cost of freight.

Donated Christmas Gifts (new) should be placed inside the Shoe Boxes. Make this a family project. Fill one box for each family member.

Collection deadline is 30th October 2006
