Operation Christmas Child brings joy and hope to children in desperate
situations around the world through gift-filled shoe boxes and the
Good News of God’s love. This program of Samaritan’s
Purse provides an opportunity for people of all ages to be involved
in a simple, hands-on mission project while focusing on the true
meaning of Christmas—Jesus Christ, God’s greatest gift.
Along with shoe box gifts, millions of children are given Gospel
booklets in their own language.
Make plans to join us in 2010 as we continue to assist in the ministry
of Operation Christmas Child!
2010 will be the 14th year
that New Bethesda has participated in Operation
Christmas Child. As a Collection Center, we receive boxes from Relay
Centers and many area churches and individuals. In 2009, we collected 19,214 boxes. This involves many, many volunteers from churches
throughout our community. Our goal for 2010 is 21,000 boxes.
A Collection Center Mission
Team travels to Charlotte, NC, in December to help in the next step
as boxes are prepared for shipment to their overseas destination.
Teams are also formed through Operation Christmas Child to travel
to the distribution locations around the world.
