Services during COVID
Due to the concern of possible spreading of the corona virus, we are following recommendations by the government and the California Southern Baptist Convention.
Sunday morning services consist of adult Bible study and the worship service. Masks should be worn as you enter the building. Some pews have been blocked to help encourage social distancing.
The worship service is being broadcast simultaneously on Pastor Bob's Zoom room at 11 AM. Once you have the Zoom app downloaded on your smart phone or computer, clicking on the link should take you directly to the room.

We are now on Facebook!

The page is in its initial stages, but as we learn the ropes (we're a bit slow when it comes to technology), we will keep adding to the page.
Redesigned Bulletin Cover
We gratefully thank Laura Brennan for her help in doing a line sketch for our bulletins. She has provided several drawings which we may be using from time to time.

Operation Christmas Child
West Shores Baptist Church has been supporting Operation Christmas Child for several years now. As of 2016, we are a relay station for collecting shoeboxes to be shipped overseas. Local churches and individuals in the West Shores area can bring their packed shoeboxes to the church. We will then place them in larger boxes to be delivered to our designated collection point church in Palm Desert. From there, they will travel to Orange County for inspection to make sure there is nothing which could cause problems with customs or that the contents are materials that will not spoil or break in shipment.
Collection week is scheduled in mid-November. Boxes brought to the church should have a check inclosed for $9 per shoe box to cover shipping costs. Payment can be done directly to Samaritan's Purse online and then print your label with a tracking code that will allow you to find out where your shoe box went.
This year, due to the Covid outbreak, curbside dropoffs will be permitted at the church. If we don't see you out front, just honk your horn and someone will come out to your car for your shoebox(es).
Want to pack a shoe box but don't have an empty box handy? Plastic shoe box size boxes can be obtained at many stores for around a dollar. OCC also makes heavy-duty plastic boxes which last year were sold at Hobby Lobby. You can also get empty shoe boxes from the church while our supplies last. Call the church to make arrangements to pick up a box or two...or five or ten... 760-395-1003. You can also go online to www.samaritanspurse.org/buildonline and build your shoebox online for a suggested donation of $25.

CHRISTMAS SING-ALONG
It is that season again...CHRISTMAS...and what better way to get in the mood than with a good old-fashioned Sing-Along! Mark your calendar and set aside time to join us on Saturday, December 19th, at 6 PM, as we come together and to sing our favorite Christmas hymns and carols. We will be sharing more Christmas joy afterwards as we share our favorite Christmas treats.
