Operation Christmas Child Shoebox Gifts It’s shoebox time again! You can help bring joy and the message of Christ to children in need! You can be part of this wonderful ministry of Samaritan’s Purse. In the main hallway under the Projects board there is a table set up where you can get what you need to participate. There are boxes, flyers with gift ideas and labels, and a few items left over from last year you can take to start filling your box! Once you fill your box you will also need to include a check for $9 per box or pay online and print a trackable label to cover shipping, distribution, and the sharing of the Gospel message. You can bring filled boxes back to the church as soon as they are ready to go. The last day they can be accepted is Sunday, November 24th. We would love to contribute at least 100 boxes this year to help bring excitement, joy, and Jesus to deserving children!
