Operation Christmas Child
The mission of Operation Christmas Child is to show God's love in a tangible way to needy children around the world, and together with the local church worldwide, to share the good news of Jesus Christ. Samaritan’s Purse is a nondenominational, evangelical Christian organization celebrating the 25 anniversary of Operation Christmas Child.
A small shoebox can have a big impact. What goes into the box is fun, but what comes out of it is eternal. Children’s lives all over the world in Jesus’ name are changed through the power of a simple gift with Operation Christmas Child.
After receiving a shoebox gift, children have the opportunity to enroll in The Greatest Journey, a dynamic, 12-lesson Bible student course guiding them through what it means to faithfully follow Christ.
Members of Valley Presbyterian Church contributed 72 boxes to 11 million Operation Christmas Child shoebox gifts worldwide in 2017! That's 11 million opportunities to share God's love with boys and girls in need.
