It's Time to Pack Shoe Boxes

While it's only October, it is already time to start thinking about Christmas! Operation Christmas Child presented by Samaritan's Purse provides a shoe box full of gifts to thousands of children around the world each year. Each filled box is an opportunity to share the Good News of Jesus Christ with a hurting child.

Crossroads will be collecting the filled boxes on Sunday November 12, 2017.

Operation Christmas Child Drive

Its time to fill shoe boxes for Operation Christmas Child presented by Samaritan's Purse. Empty boxes and packing instructions are available. Each filled box is an opportunity to share the Good News of Jesus Christ with a hurting child.

In addition to individual or family boxes, the children's Sunday School program Life Tools is asking for donations of items so our children can experience packing the boxes. There is a list of desired items available. Also your prayer and financial support is welcomed.

Please return the filled boxes or items for the children to pack by Sunday November 16, 2014.
