Operation Christmas Child (OCC)

Central Drop-Off Team Leader: Lanelle Amann

This Ministry reaches children around the world for Jesus Christ, one Shoebox at a time!

The Amazing Journey of a Shoebox Gift Begins with You and Results in Evangelism, Discipleship, and Multiplication.

GOOD NEWS - GREAT JOY

2024 Marks 31 years of this Ministry

Since its founding in 1993, Operation Christmas Child has distributed over 200 million shoebox gifts in more than 170 countries & territories to children living in destitute conditions. Sponsored by Samaritan's Purse International, a non-profit Christian Relief Organization based in Boone, NC, Operation Christmas Child is all about sharing Jesus Christ through a simple shoebox packed with "gifts of love" - a tangible expression of God's love to children living in a dark world of poverty, war and uncertain futures. Along with the shoebox gift, children receive a booklet in their native language, "The Greatest Gift" explaining the plan of salvation and the love of Jesus Christ. "The Greatest Journey", a 12-lesson discipleship program, is offered to the children "after the shoebox".
