Serving Globally can be easy, very rewarding, fun and meaningful for all ages! Yearly, every fall, Faith Church participates in Operation Christmas Child, filling shoeboxes with gifts, candy and love.
Since 1993 more than 100 million boys and girls in over 130 countries have experienced God’s love through the power of simple shoebox gifts from Operation Christmas Child. Samaritan’s Purse works with local churches and ministry partners to deliver the gifts and share the life-changing Good News of Jesus Christ.
REMEMBER: There is no “right” set of gifts to include. Each shoebox gift is unique. There have been many reports of boxes with seemingly-unusual combinations of gifts being exactly what the child receiving the box needed!
A Note from Franklin Graham
“Every box is important! They’re all different. Put good stuff in it. These kids we’re giving boxes to are kids that have never had a gift in their life and they need to know that God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
We want the children of the world to know about God’s love. Every child, we’re going to follow up with them and we’re going to disciple them.
Thank you for your gift! Every box is important. Get involved. We need your help. We need your support. God bless you! Thank you! And have a Merry Christmas!”
— Franklin Graham, Samaritans Purse
