[Made2Worship89]

How many of you participate in Operation Christmas Child?? Just curious! Our church was actually picked to be a drop off point this year, I'm super excited!!! I just wish I could go and see the faces of the kids when they open up their boxes!!

I'm not involved but I know some folk who are, up here. Is this one of Franklin Graham's ministries?

Yeah, he is the president of Samaritan's Purse!

It sounds like a great ministry. I've supported the disaster relief efforts of Samaritan's Purse.

Yup,my church is doing shoeboxes and my mom and I are working on one for a 2 or 3 yr
old little girl. So far I have a baby doll and doll accessory set.

It's quite a widespread ministry and activity, I think!

I love stuff like this and my church is simplifying things
with pre made shoeboxes with the boy girl/age group stickers.

Sounds like it's well organized.

I did them as a teen with my church at the time and felt really rewarded in doing them. I think they're great.

 

[JacquelineDeane55]

Yeah I paid for them to do a box.

That's what our church does! We have the tags and the pre-made boxes! It's a lot of fun to fill them!

That's awesome! It's such a good cause!

We have the tags and boxes we fold ourselves at our church! So much fun

Hmm I was thinking of just toys but clothing would be nice.

Yes my Church participates in Operation Christmas Child. When I wasn't in College I use to help when I was a teen get the boxes organized and ready to ship. I also would have loved to go to the places and see the kids faces as they open up the boxes.
