Join and/or Participate in the Shoebox Gifting for this Christmas.
Teach your child about giving this Christmas
The mission of Operation Christmas Child is to demonstrate God’s love in a tangible way to children around the world. Through this project, churches all over the world facilitate
the packing of shoeboxes to be sent to children in needy areas. Every shoebox is a tool for evangelism and discipleship. At Operation Christmas Child outreach events, children get to hear the Good News of Jesus Christ as they receive one of these prayerfully packed shoeboxes.
Sign up to Volunteer or Participate.
