Due: Tuesday 22 October
As in previous years, Kuyper will be providing the opportunity for our families to participate in Operation Christmas Child. Shoeboxes are available from school, or you can purchase your own directly from Samaritan’s Purse. Once you have filled your shoebox, return it to the Office. Don’t forget to donate the cost of shipping the boxes ($12.50) via the OCC website.
If you wish to receive some boxes from us, please contact the Office. Shoeboxes, either full or empty, are due to the Office by Tuesday 22 October.
Visit the Samaritan’s Purse website for more details on how to pack your box. You can also volunteer to help pack and pray over boxes by following this link.
Operation Christmas Child is a project of Samaritan’s Purse. It is a hands-on way for you to bless children in need across the world by filling shoeboxes with toys, hygiene items, school supplies, and fun gifts. We collect the boxes and distribute them in the name of Jesus Christ to children living in vulnerable situations.
The mission of Operation Christmas Child is to provide God’s love in a tangible way to children in need around the world, and together with the local church worldwide, to share the Good News of Jesus Christ.
