Operation Christmas Child is a fun and simple, hands-on project of Samaritan’s Purse that anyone can participate in. Each gift-filled shoe box is used to bless the life of a child living in a desperate situation. When culturally appropriate, children are also offered “The Greatest Gift of All,” an illustrated storybook in their local language explaining how God sent his only son. Children can learn more about having a personal relationship with Jesus through a voluntary discipleship program that is offered.
For many children, receiving a cherished, gift-filled shoe box from Operation Christmas Child also opens the door for them, their families, and their communities to receive additional assistance from Samaritan’s Purse in the form of water filters, feeding programs, and medical care. More information at Beyond the Box.
On Sunday, November 15th, Yorkton Victory Church will be packing shoeboxes during Sunday School. Please bring a few items for a young boy or girl. Thank you so much for your support!
