July 2nd Sat Event Featuring Operation Kindness

For the month of July we wanted the 2nd Saturday event to highlight Operation Kindness. It seemed rather fitting as we celebrate our country’s independence that we remember the men and women who are so faithfully serving our country in places all over the world to uphold the freedoms that we have here in America.

If you missed it, it was a powerful evening! Harry Bias (who helps to organize Operation Kindness here at the Loudoun campus) spoke about all the ways Operation Kindness is blessing our soldiers and encouraged us on the things we can be doing to continue to bless them as they serve. Blank cards and postcards were provided and we all wrote notes and prayers to servicemen and women. It was great to hear stories about those serving and a great reminder of the sacrifice those serving our country are making by being away from their families and in harm’s way.

If you missed the event and want to know more about Operation Kindness, email operationkindness@mcleanbible.org. There is a packing night on Tuesday, August 10th at 7pm at the Tysons campus where you can help back 30-50 care packages that will be sent to our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Mark your calendars for our next 2nd Saturday event at 5:00pm on August 14th. We will be hearing from students and volunteers who will have just returned from the ROCK’s mission trip to the Dominican Republic. You won’t want to miss it!
