Glendale, CA – Families gathered together for a Movie Night on Dec. 3, 2021 to collect new unwrapped toys for the GPOA Cops for Kids Toy Drive.

The Missions committee organized a wonderful evening with popcorn, snacks, hot cocoa and a showing of Disney’s Aladdin. We were glad to have officers from GPOA visit and talk to the kids about how they will distribute these toys to local kids in need. Later that week GPOA officers picked up 5 large bags of toys donated by families and friends of AEBC. Thank you to all those who give in all seasons of life! What a great way to shine God’s light in our community!

The Toy Drive was the last of our winter missions. Several boxes of canned goods were collected over the course of 3 months for local food pantries, Over 50 shoeboxes were packed and sent off for Operation Christmas Child and many families donated to the AMAA Christmas Joy box fund for kids in Armenia and Artsakh. God bless you all.
