Operation Christmas Child
This Sunday we'll be launching Operation Christmas Child!
The mission of Operation Christmas Child is to demonstrate God’s love in a tangible way to children in need around the world. Samaritan's Purse (who run Operation Christmas Child) partner with local churches around the world to hand out the boxes and share the good news of the gospel.
If you'd like to get involved, here's how the process works:
1. Grab a leaflet and a shoebox (either from church or one you have at home).
2. Decide if you're going to fill the box for a boy or a girl and which age category they'll be.
3. Fill it with small gifts such as fun toys, personal care items or school supplies.
4. Make a project donation online or you can put a cheque in the box.
5. Bring it back to church by the 10th November!
