Operation Christmas Child provides an opportunity for people of all ages to be involved in a simple, hands-on project of Samaritan's Purse that focuses on the true meaning of Christmas - Jesus Christ - God's greatest gift.
How it works: Each shoebox is filled by Canadians with hygiene items, school supplies, and toys, and is given to children regardless of gender, race, or religion. When culturally appropriate, copies of a book entitled The Greatest Gift, which has been translated into 130 different languages, are offered to children after the shoeboxes have already been distributed.
Start planning what you would like to pack into your Operations Christmas Child Shoe Box.
~ Shoe Boxes will be available October 1st, to be returned no later than November 12th. ~
We are collecting donations now, for packing additional shoe boxes. Please consider picking up a couple extra school supplies, toiletries or small toys to drop off to our basket on Sundays.
