Pack a Shoebox!

Operation Christmas Child is a ministry by Samaritan’s Purse that distributes shoe boxes filled with toys, clothes, school supplies, but mostly, HOPE!  Their mission is to demonstrate God’s love in a tangible way to needy children around the world. Many of these children are displaced by civil war or are orphans.  For many of these children, this is the only present they’ll get at Christmas.  And for orphans, it is most likely the only things they can call “mine”. 

Shoe box collection week is November 15 –22.  Consider packing a shoebox this year and sharing hope with a child who needs it.
