The mission of Operation Christmas Child is to share God’s love in a tangible way with children in need around the world. Through this project, Samaritan’s Purse partners with local churches globally to share the Good News of Jesus Christ and make disciples of the nations.
At its heart, this mission is about love, generosity, and discipleship—making a meaningful difference in the life of a child.
We invite both our congregation and the wider community to take part by packing shoebox gifts each November. You can also contribute year-round by collecting items and creating handmade gifts that add a personal touch. There are many ways to get involved: share your talents by leading craft efforts, help pack boxes online for those unable to shop, spread awareness among friends and neighbors, participate in local events like parades, or assist in delivering shoeboxes to a nearby collection site.
