For over 15 years we have partnered 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 in which anyone can get involved. 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.
In 2023 we set a new record and packed 215 physical and 17 online boxes and we took 255 shoeboxes from the community to the Regional Drop-Off Center in Albuquerque. These 470 boxes are now on their way to spread the Gospel around the world!
You can also pack a shoebox online - click on the link at the bottom of this page.
OUR 2024 GOAL IS 250 SHOEBOXES!!!!.
