Every year our church participates in Operation Christmas Child, a ministry that sends shoeboxes filled with gifts and the gospel message to children around the world.
In past years, we have had boxes filled from families, classes and different groups. This year, we are hoping to enlarge the ministry sent from our church.
Every few weeks, we will be collecting particular items and in November, we will put them all together and pack shoeboxes.
Right now, we are accepting school supplies. They are easy to find right now and plentiful! Ideas include:
crayons
crayons
markers
paper
notepads
colored pencils
coloring books
stickers
Let's get a jump start of this ministry and begin to share items to fill up many boxes! For more information, please visit Samaritans Purse.
