Operation Christmas Child – 2008

November 1st, 2008 | By Rich Shipe | Posted in Announcements, Calendar, Get Involved, Missions, Service Opportunities, Youth

Through a simple gift-filled shoe box, Operation Christmas Child brings the excitement of Christmas and the good news of God’s love to children in desperate situations around the world. An amazing 7.6 million shoe boxes were shipped to more than 100 countries last year. Over 600 of them came from BRBC! Everyone can be involved in this simple, hands-on missions project. The national collection week for the shoe boxes is November 17-22. BRBC again will be a collection center (Monday-Friday 5:30-7:30 p.m. & Saturday 9-Noon). For more information, or if you would like to volunteer in the collection center (16 & up only), please contact Courtney Shipe (allshipesandsizes[at]gmail.com).

    I have 12 shoe boxes. Would they be of use to your ministry for the Shoe Box Christmas progam?
