We are excited to participate in Operation Christmas Child again this year (a project through Samaritan’s Purse). They 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. Pick up a box at one of our services in the lobby, donate an item to help fill a box, or donate $10 to help ship a box. Return boxes and donations to SCF by November 5.

Labels
To make sure your shoebox gift gets to a child of the right gender and age, Samaritan’s Purse offers some different label options. Labels also offer a way for you to give the necessary $10 donation per shoebox to provide for collection, processing, shipping, and other project costs. If you donate online in either of the ways outlined below, the labels allow you to Follow Your Box and find out the country where your box will be delivered with the message of Christ’s love.
