Operation Christmas Child blog post
Hi friends! For the past several years, my family has been packing Operation Christmas Child boxes. It’s getting to be that time of year again. (I just love Christmastime!) For those of you that don’t know, an Operation Christmas Child box is a shoebox filled with gifts which is distributed by the ministry Samaritan’s Purse, along with the gospel message, to needy children around the world. I’d like to share some ideas with you today for packing your box. Pick your age range—2-4 year old, 5-9 year old, or 10-14 year old—and whether you want to pack for a boy or girl. Pick a “wow” item such as a stuffed animal, a soccer ball with pump, a backpack or other fun item. Then fill your box with:
Some tips for saving money:
Pray for the child, that they will be blessed by the gifts, and that, most importantly, they will come to know Jesus as their Lord and Savior. Visit samaritanspurse.org/occ to find a drop-off location and more information. Remember, “He who calls you is faithful, who also will do it,”(1 Th. 5:24). All for Him, Savannah
