Shoeboxes 2014

Once again this Christmas Wesley was a base for sorting and checking the shoeboxes filled with gifts for children around the world. They contain toys, paper and pens, sweets, warm hats and scarves, and other 'stocking-filler' gifts. Members and friends of Wesley were busy from November to the beginning of December. 2606 shoeboxes were checked and sent out to the distribution warehouse.
