The Christmas Card Exchange area will again be set up like last year near the women’s restroom in the North hall. Each household/family unit in the Roanoke church has a hanging file folder assigned to them to act as their mailbox. These folders have been arranged alphabetically for easy use to give Christmas cards out to anyone in church. If you notice someone in church does not have a folder, please use the extra folders available to fill in their name and file their folder alphabetically.
