Mailing Instructions
The only way to get a package to us is by the US Postal Service/Priority Mail. The post office will give you an "APO/FPO" box in two different sizes (usually found in the lobbies). You can stuff all you can in the box (with any amount of weight) for the same price. We have sent some really heavy boxes that way. When you bring the box back it will cost $10.95 to mail the smaller box and $11.95 to mail the larger box. It would be best to reinforce the boxes with tape since they have so far to come and there is so much Christmas mail. Of coarse you can take any box to the post office to mail to us by priority mail but the weight will matter in that case.
Since the box is going outside the US, you will have to fill out a white customs form (also usually found in the PO lobbies) that they will attach to the outside of the box.
The packages need to be mailed NO LATER than the week after Thanksgiving. Anytime after that would be a total gamble as to whether it would get here in time for Christmas or not. Lee and I have to carry everything to the church building on our backs, so we need the time to make more than one trip.
Address it to:
Lee & Avis Cummings
CMR # 701
PO BOX 1652
APO, AP 96555-0017
God's Blessing on you all and thank you very much for your help.
