Fill a shoebox and make a difference in a child’s life!

Operation Christmas Child (OCC) is a project of Samaritan’s Purse, an international relief organization. Their mission is to provide local partners around the world with shoeboxes filled with small toys, hygiene items, and school supplies as a means of reaching out to children in their own communities with the Good News of Jesus Christ. They ship these simple gifts outside the United States to children affected by war, poverty, natural disaster, famine, and disease.

Empty shoeboxes (and other OCC resources) are available at SBCC for your convenience. Take as many as you need to fill with gifts for children around the world. Help spread the Good News of God’s love this holiday season!

For ideas on what to pack and to learn more about this ministry, please visit samaritanspurse.org.

Filled shoeboxes can be returned to SBCC on Sunday mornings from 8:30am- 12pm. Last drop off day is November 12 at The Log Den (location of the church service for that week).
