Operation Christmas Child National Collection Week November 14 – 21

Through a partnership between Samaritan’s Purse and churches worldwide, Operation Christmas Child’s National Collection Week for the 2022 season is November 14 – 21.

Operation Christmas Child delivers great joy and the Good News of Jesus Christ to children in need around the world through gift-filled shoeboxes. Each box packed full of quality toys, school supplies, and personal care items becomes a tangible expression of God’s immense love for the child. For many, it is their first gift ever! Delivered by our local church partners, shoebox gifts provide an opportunity to present the Gospel to boys and girls in a clear, child-friendly way.
