Operation Christmas Child OCC Shoebox gifts Canada

Operation Christmas Child brings joy and hope to children in desperate situations around the world through gift-filled shoe boxes and the message of Gods unconditional love. Anyone can participate in this simple, hands-on project.
Last season, 713,294 shoe boxes from Canada were collected and distributed to children in more than 15 countries. Each gift is a special reminder to a child that he or she is loved. Delivered by teams of local pastors, charities, and civic leaders, Operation Christmas Child gifts provide opportunities to make a lasting impact on children, families and communities. Often, the shoe boxes open doors to provide other aid, allowing Samaritans Purse to provide resources for a better tomorrow.
Operation Christmas Child focuses on the true meaning of Christmas Jesus Christ Gods greatest gift. Separate from the shoe box and when culturally appropriate, we offer children The Greatest Gift of All, an illustrated Bible storybook in the local language. When possible, children can further explore a faith in Jesus Christ through a voluntary Bible study program.
The shoe boxes dont leave Canada on their journey overseas without first making an impact on the people who pack them. The project fosters compassion in Canadian families, individuals, and businesses by expanding their world view and showing how it is greater to give than to receive.

THIS is what Christmas is about.

This is a wonderful program that my family has participated in for three years now. My children love to choose gifts for a child their age--and we love to pray for the children who receive them. Thank you Operation Christmas Child for making this wonderful program possible for the glory of King Jesus Christ!

I used to do this when I was at school and I was always so happy that the children got their boxes when we watched videos like this !

This is not only a blessing for the kids that get the gifts but to those who give. My daughter is 3 and now instead of focusing on what she is getting for Christmas she looks at magazines and says I want to get that for a little girl.

I just made a box for a baby girl and a 5-9 year old girl. This is my favorite christmas tradition. I used to go to up to the warehouse in the Twin Cities, but I havent had a chance to get up there lately :( I want to work for Samaritan Purse
