Operation Christmas Child 2025

For children around the world, a shoebox is often their very first gift. Given together with the Good News of Jesus Christ, it communicates God’s love to a boy or girl in need.

Suggestions for items to pack, box labels, donation envelopes and shoeboxes are available from the display table in the narthex. Please note that soap has been added to the do NOT pack list. Additional information including a way to track the box you packed can be found on their website at Operation Christmas Child - Samaritan’s Purse Canada.

Deadline for dropping off donations will be 11:00 am on November 23rd.

Thank you for your support of those in need through this worldwide ministry.
