Operation Christmas child is a project of Samaritan’s Purse, an organization headed by Franklin Graham, the son of Billy Graham. It send millions of gift-filled shoe boxes to needy children in war-torn and poverty-stricken countries around the world. It also sends each child the message of Jesus Christ.

    Community Church has been involved in this project for five years. In the fall, we pack and send approximately 50 boxes which are sent through the collection centre in Pembroke. Suggested items for shoe boxes are school supplies, toiletries and small toys. This is a project of faith in action, spreading the word of God’s love.
