Members of the Sherman Church Missions Committee pack a box of items to send to servicemen and women serving in Kuwait, including items such as toiletries, nonperishable snacks, letters and cards signed by members of the church to let those serving know they have not been forgotten. Collections are ongoing through the year, and boxes are sent regularly to units serving overseas. To donate items, please contact the church or drop items off Monday through Friday before noon at 6 Church Road.
