Operation Christmas Child is a worldwide children's ministry project of Samaritan's Purse that uses a simple shoebox gift to impact the life of a child and share God's love. Shoeboxes are distributed to hurting children in areas of the world where there has been a natural disaster, famine, or extreme poverty. After receiving shoebox gifts, boys and girls are invited to enroll in The Greatest Journey, a 12-lesson discipleship program where children learn to faithfully follow Christ and share their faith with others. In the hands of local churches, every gift-filled shoebox is a powerful tool for evangelism and discipleship-transforming the lives of children and their families around the world through the Good News of Jesus Christ. Shoebox gifts bring hope and love to millions around the world. Visit www.SamaritansPurse.org/OCC for stories and pictures of shoebox distributions. National Collection Week is Nov. 14-21, 2022.
