Operation Christmas Child

We are so excited to be partnering with Samariatan’s Purse and Operation Christmas Child this Christmas Season! 

The mission of OCC is to demonstrate God’s love in a tangible way to children in need around the world. Since 1993, more than 188 million children in more than 170 countries and territories have received an OCC shoebox. As a result, 12.5 million boys and girls have made a decision to follow Christ.  

All boxes need to be returned to the church
NO LATER than NOVEMBER 24.

INSTRUCTIONS

Pick Up A Shoe Box in the Atrium (November 3 - 17)

Fill your box with fun toys, hygiene items, and school supplies. Don’t forget to include a personal note and photo – sometimes these are the child’s favorite things to receive.

Check the appropriate boxes on the label for boy or girl and the age range.

PRAY! Most importantly “pray without ceasing” (1 Thessalonians 5:17) for the child who will receive your shoebox gift.

          • Pray for their family to be receptive to the good news of Jesus Christ
          • Pray for the pastor of the church who delivers your shoebox gift
          • Pray for their community to be transformed by the gospel
