Operation Christmas Child Shoe Boxes Now is a good time to buy for this year’s Samaritan’s Purse “Operation Christmas Child” shoe box donations. This Christmas, you can share the love and hope of Jesus Christ with a needy child in a country like El Salvador or Guinea by packing a simple shoe box with personal gifts. Operation Christmas Child (www.samaritans-purse.org.uk) is an easy missions project that every member and family can participate in by bringing a gift-filled shoe box to church on Sunday November 15th. Complete details are outlined in the OCC brochure. (If you are unable to do a shoe box but want to participate anyway, there are donation envelopes in the brochures).
