It’s that time of year!

Operation Christmas Child Shoeboxes will be available for our church family to fill and return to then be delivered around the world.

Operation Christmas Child is a project of Samaritian’s Purse, an International Relief Organization. Their mission is to provide these shoeboxes filled with small toys, hygiene items, and school supplies as a means of reaching children in their own communities with the Gospel. The shoeboxes are shipped outside the US to children affected by war, poverty, natural disaster, famine and disease; and to children living on Native American reservations in the US.

This year, we will have 1,500 shoeboxes available to be filled. Pick up a box at one of the tables in the concourse beginning on Sunday, October 12 through Sunday, October 26th, or until they are all spoken for.

Once shoebox is filled, please return it to the tables at either end of the concourse between Sunday, November 2nd through Sunday, November 16th.

ALL SHOEBOXES should be returned by November 16th for final packing and delivery to a central location later that week.
