Overview

As a part of our Christmas At King initiatives each year, we participate in Operation Christmas Child to bless children around the world and show them the light of Jesus.

You’ll be able to sign out a shoebox on Thanksgiving Sunday morning, or the following Wednesday evening to fill up either your own or with your family and depending on the age group that you select give toys, activities, personal care items, clothing, etc. Please note, all boxes need to be returned by Sunday, November 17th to ensure they can be shipped on time.

Money donations do not need to be included in the shoeboxes as the church has donated on our member’s behalf.

What is Operation Christmas Child?

The mission of OCC is to demonstrate God’s love in a tangible way to children in need around the world. Through this project, Samaritan’s Purse partners with local churches and volunteers in more than 100 countries, and trains and equips them to proclaim the Good News using gift-filled shoeboxes. Often in locations that are hostile to the Gospel, in regions where whole people groups are yet unreached, and on hundreds of remote Pacific islands.

Some of their newest initiatives include translating Gospel materials into minor languages, using audio translations where there is no written language, and providing Braille resources for blind and visually impaired children.
