Operation Christmas Child (OCC) is a project of The Samaritan's Purse. OCC collects shoebox gifts that will be delivered to children in need around the world to show God's love. These shoebox gifts are filled with toys, school supplies, clothing and hygiene items.

It's shoebox season! We are excited and look forwarding to packing many shoeboxes and to sharing the gospel to children all around the world. This year, we will be, once again, one of the collection sites in the region during National Collections Week (NCW), Nov 15-23. Collection week hours will be posted as we get closer to NCW. Meanwhile, get a shoebox and start packing!
