Operation Christmas Child


Please join us in this simple
 mission by filling a shoe box with gifts for needy children around the world. Pick up your shoe box in the Rotunda on Sunday.  Final collection is Sunday, November 22nd


Operation Christmas Child is a ministry of Franklin Graham’s Samaritan’s Purse.  Through Gift-filled shoe boxes Operation Christmas Child brings joy and hope to children in desperate situations around the world. Shoe boxes are filled with:

• Hygiene Items
• School Supplies
• Small Toys or Games
• Hard Candy

Once packed and gift wrapped, boxes are shipped by train, plane, and boat to unreached people groups to spread the love of Jesus, and to bring children and their families to saving faith in Christ.

Join Immanuel’s Church this year as we seek to fill and ship 1500 boxes.
 

Mark your calendars for the following events:

• Children’s Ministry Box Stuffing Party – Date TBD
• Youth Ministry Box Stuffing Party – Date TBD
