Operation Christmas Child

2,426 shoeboxes collected at our site in Nov 2007!
Thanks to all who prepared shoeboxes and all who volunteered.

What is Operation Christmas Child?
Operation Christmas Child brings joy and hope to children in desperate situations around the world through gift-filled shoeboxes 
(suggested items) and the Good News of God’s love. This program of Samaritan’s Purse provides an opportunity for people of all ages to be involved in a simple, hands-on missions project while focusing on the true meaning of Christmas—Jesus Christ, God’s greatest gift. Along with shoebox gifts, millions of children are given Gospel booklets in their own language. 

Our church has served as a collection site for the past three years.
