Operation Christmas Child underway on the Coast
SUMMARY: Operation Christmas Child volunteers are working to ensure every child has a merry holiday by collecting donations, which they have been doing for years through Samaritan’s Purse. Two trailers at New Hope Baptist Church in Gulf Ports are among 4700 drop-off sites. The goal is to deliver 11 million shoeboxes filled with toys, toiletries, and gifts to children worldwide, including war-torn countries and hard-to-reach areas. Today marks the last day for local drop-offs before the trailers are shipped to Atlanta, then distributed globally as the initiative continues into 2023.
Making sure every child’s holidays are merry and bright… Monday, Operation Christmas Child volunteers packed up donations at New Hope Baptist Church.

Harrison County Sheriff’s Marine Operations keep beaches, boaters safe
SUMMARY: During the busy Labor Day holiday, law enforcement in Harrison County, including the Department of Marine Resources and the Sheriff’s office, are actively patrolling the area’s waters and 22 miles of beaches to ensure safety. With increased crowds, their focus is on boat safety, checking for adequate life jackets, flares, and fire extinguishers. Alcohol is often a contributing factor in boating accidents, and penalties can mirror those for driving under the influence. Common infractions include violations of glass container laws and overnight beach tent regulations. Patrols aim to foster positive interactions with families enjoying the water.
Keeping people safe is a tall order, and much of it is in the hands of the Harrison County Sheriff’s Office Marine Operations.
