Hosted by Bladen/Blue Hill United Women in FaithOperation Christmas Child
Operation Christmas Child collects shoebox gifts filled with fun toys, school supplies and hygiene items—and delivers them to children in need around the world to demonstrate God’s love in a tangible way. For many of these children, the gift-filled shoebox is the first gift they have ever received.
Since 1993, Operation Christmas Child, the world’s largest Christmas project of its kind, has collected and delivered more than 220 million shoebox gifts to children in more than 170 countries and territories. The Bladen church has been participating in this collection of filled shoe boxes for approximately 20 years. This year the filled shoe boxes will be picked up from the church on November 17th. For those wanting to use the preprinted plastic shoes boxes, they will be available for $2.50 each. For more information, contact Cindy Timm.
