We would like to thank all of our church members who took the time to fill up a shoeboxes for the past 3 years. Now would be a good time to consider filling a box for the Christmas 2026 season! The office has boxes you could pick up and begin filling. If you get one filled, the office will gladly store it for you so it will be ready for this year’s collection.
National collection week for 2026 is not set but you can click on the blue link to see all the missions Samaritan’s Purse is involved: Samaritan’s Purse International Disaster Relief — International Relief
OCC asks for a donation of $10.00 for each box to help cover the costs of shipping the boxes and it is used to help train and equip local churches to use our Ministry Partner Guide. This resource shows churches how to share the Good News of the Lord Jesus Christ in a child-friendly way. Your donation also provides The Greatest Gift Gospel Booklets, which are written in the children's language and distributed along with shoebox gifts, so please make sure you place $10.00 cash or check in an envelope and tape it to the outside of the box.
Thank you to everyone who helped some children across the world have a great Christmas season in 2021 and 2022 and hopefully you will consider donating a box or two in 2023!
