The Samaritan’s Purse project Operation Christmas Child collects shoeboxes—filled with school supplies, hygiene items, fun toys and notes of encouragement—and delivers them to children in need around the world to demonstrate God’s love in a tangible way. The TBC 2017 Operation Christmas Child program will be continuing until Sunday, November 12.
Here is how it works - take one of the pre-printed shoe boxes available in the foyer and fill it with items. There is a brochure inside the box that will serve as a guide as to what can be in the box and items to avoid. (Avoid: candy, liquids and toys that depict violence). After filling the box, put in a check or cash for $9 in the envelope (found in the box) to cover shipping of the box. Considering writing a personal note or card and placing it in the box. Return the box to TBC by Nov. 12 and it will be delivered to the relay station.
