Operation Christmas Child 2022
What is Operation Christmas Child?
Operation Christmas Child is a project of Samaritan’s Purse, an international relief organization. Our mission is to 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. We ship these simple gifts outside the United States to children affected by war, poverty, natural disaster, famine, and disease; and to children living on Native American reservations in the U.S.
Why shoebox gifts?
Shoebox gifts demonstrate God’s love in a tangible way to children in need around the world. By partnering with the local church worldwide, each shoebox gift is a powerful tool for sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ.
Below are several files related to the Valley Heart Assembly of God OCC activities this year. We are looking for volunteers and support from the community. We can use help with gathering/packing/delivering them to the central collection point in Olympia.
Also, one of the file explains the opportunity to fill a shoebox on-line for yourself or someone you want to bless by having them 'pack' it on-line.
There is additional info such as time lines on our website: valleyheart.org
Questions? More info? Talk to me or Sam (Dickerson).
