Operation Christmas Child Shoebox
Collection Week November 16-23, 2026
As a church, we have the opportunity to bless others and share the hope of the gospel through Operation Christmas Child. The Mission Committee is encouraging us to collect items each month to help fill shoeboxes, trusting the Lord as we work toward a goal of 150 shoeboxes.
National Shoebox Collection Week Is November 16-23! We need volunteers!!!
