OPERATION CHRISTMAS CHILD

The shoeboxes have arrived! Children around the world are beginning to think about Christmas. Samaritan's Purse is setting up collection stations and coordinating shipping containers and delivery vehicles.

It's time for the 2021 edition of Operation Christmas Child!

We are praying for an extravagant response this year from our Holy Trinity family for the children who will be blessed with gift shoeboxes at Christmas time. The collection week is approaching quickly: November 15 to 22. The OCC display is setup and waiting for you in the Holy Trinity Fellowship Hall with plenty of paper and plastic shoeboxes to be filled.

Each gift box will be tagged for a specific age group and gender, and suggested gifts for each child group are listed on the sheets at THIS LINK. Find the list for your particular target child, and then go shopping!!

There is a ton of additional information available regarding Operation Christmas Child and the process for creating a gift shoebox on the OCC website at this OCC LINK.

In addition, check out the great video promotion produced by Samaritan's Purse for the 2021 Operation Christmas Child program at THIS VIDEO LINK.

Our OCC program is being coordinated again this year by Ashley Carlson. If you have questions, please reach out to Ashley or contact the Church Office.

Let's be powerful Kingdom Influencers this Christmas by blessing children who need the impact of Jesus and His Church in their lives.
