“Let the children come to Me; do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of God.” Mark 10:14, ESV
The mission of Operation Christmas Child is to demonstrate God’s love in a tangible way to children in need around the world. Through this project, Samaritan’s Purse partners with the local church worldwide to share the Good News of Jesus Christ and make disciples of the nations.
Last year, Madeira-Silverwood collected 60 shoeboxes. We've set a goal for collecting 75 boxes this year!
We have pre-wrapped gift boxes available for pickup at church. Instructions for filling the box are included with each box. Please return your boxes to church on or before Sunday November 20. Visit the Samaritan's Purse Operation Christmas Child website for more details about the ministry and ideas for filling your box.
