Every year at this time we partner with Samaritan's Purse to pack shoeboxes for Operation Christmas Child. What is Operation Christmas Child? Glad you asked...
Operation Christmas Child is a fun and easy project that anyone can get involved in. Through simple gifts Operation Christmas Child brings good news and great joy to children all over the world. Basically, you and your family pack a shoebox with little things children would like, then Samaritan's Purse adds a Gospel booklet and sends them to children in need all over the world. The children experience the love of Christ through these simple gifts and they get the Gospel message in their own language.
OUR 2021 GOAL IS 250 SHOEBOXES!!!!.
How can you help?
