Operation Christmas Child brings joy and hope to children around the world through gift-filled shoe boxes and the message of God's unconditional love. People of all ages can be involved in this simple, hands-on mission project that focuses on the true meaning of Christmas - Jesus Christ, God's greatest gift.

This ministry is closed for 2022

Our 2022 Goal is 75 Shoeboxes

Note:  We received a total of 111 Shoeboxes!!

(49 online shoeboxes and 62 shoeboxes filled and brought to church)

 Shoeboxes were due at MeherrinBC by November 6, 2022

Join us this year in packing traditional boxes, building a shoebox online or both.

Traditional shoeboxes will be available at MeherrinBC beginning October 1, 2022. Gift suggestions and labeling instructions are inside each box or you may visit https://www.samaritanspurse.or...

Build a box online! Bless children around the world without leaving your home.
