Operation Christmas Child

Since 1993, more than 220 million children in over 170 countries have felt God’s love through a simple shoebox gift from Operation Christmas Child. At Living Faith Christian Church, we’re honored to be part of this incredible ministry led by Samaritan’s Purse. By packing a shoebox with toys, school supplies, and personal items, we have the opportunity to share the hope and joy of Jesus with children around the world—many who may be hearing about His love for the very first time. 

 Pick up an empty shoebox from the Atrium at Living Faith Christian Church beginning on
Sunday, October 19th. 
Fill it with fun toys, hygiene items, and school supplies. You can even include a personal note or a photo to connect on a deeper level. 

 Every shoebox is an opportunity to spread God’s love. Before dropping it off, take a moment to pray for the child who will receive it, that they may be blessed and know God’s love. 

Seeking to follow Jesus’ command to “make disciples of all the nations” (Matthew 28:19), Samaritan's Purse has trained over 1.9 million volunteers to teach The Greatest Journey, a dynamic follow-up discipleship course for shoebox recipients. Since 2009, 40.5 million children have enrolled in this 12-lesson program to learn how to follow Christ and share Him with others. More than 20.2 million of these boys and girls have made a decision to accept Jesus as their Savior during the course. Many are now praying for and sharing their faith with family and friends. As a result of this ever-expanding witness, new churches are starting and communities are being transformed!
