Operation Christmas Child

Operation Christmas Child is a global outreach initiative organized by Samaritan's Purse that brings hope and joy to children in need around the world. Participants pack shoeboxes with gifts like toys, school supplies, hygiene items, and personal notes, which are then distributed to children in impoverished communities across different countries. Each shoebox serves as a tangible expression of God’s love, often being the only gift a child may receive. Beyond the gifts, children are introduced to the Gospel and given the chance to join a discipleship program that fosters spiritual growth. This project is a meaningful way for individuals, families, and church communities to come together, spread the love of Christ, and make a real difference in the lives of children across the globe.
