Operation Christmas Child

Every year Samaritan's Purse conducts their Operation Christmas Child ministry.

My church is readying for the ministry by displaying a sample box with potential gift items.

This church provides all items to be packed at a packing party, or you can get your own boxes and pack them yourself.

Their goal is 800 boxes, up from last year.

What an amazing ministry!!

Praise God for Franklin Graham, Billy Graham's son, who developed this project through Samaritan's Purse.

Shoeboxes

It's that time of year.  Operation Christmas Child.  My church stacked these empty shoeboxes in one of the lobbies for people to take home and fill.  

The boxes go to a central distribution center, they're checked for appropriate contents, then sealed and sent to various locations around the world. 

The children receive the boxes with options to attend classes to learn about Jesus.

What an awesome ministry conducted every year by Samaritan's Purse which is led by

Franklin Graham.
