  • Get Involved with Operation Christmas Child--Sending the Gospel around the World!
    *Our goal is to send quality special items (with soft textures/colors/sounds) in every shoebox, so the children will feel God's love and desire a relationship with him when the Gospel message is presented at the OCC event! We are praying this will be the case for each and every child and beyond (family, friends, villagers, leaders, etc.)!
    Let's keep moving forward! Run the race to win! Let's live out Hebrews 12:1 "Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us." Amen.
    Check out the multiple resources for Operation Christmas Child shoebox packing! Look on BlessingsinaShoebox.com for: 107 Rubber Bands and many other fun and useful items on the Best Deals Page, Printables, Tutorials, age appropriate recommendations for items to pack in your shoeboxes, videos, and links to many items for your shoeboxes!
    And check out: Blessings in a Shoebox Facebook Group for many links to deals on school supplies, plush, toys, socks, and more!
    ***It's fun to imagine the joy these shoebox gifts will bring to the children, but even better is the eternal impact I hope they have. My prayer is that God will be preparing the hearts of this little girl and her family, so that when she receives her shoebox she will believe the Gospel message and receive Jesus as Lord of her life. And, God willing, her family will follow suit!
    Keep packing shoeboxes to glorify God and share the Gospel. And keep looking up--the Lord is coming soon. Let's be found about our Father's business when Jesus calls us to meet Him in the air!
    * Franklin Graham says PRAYER and Personal Notes are the most important thing and he wants us to send MORE TOYS in our shoeboxes and to the processing center as fillers! And that's our aim! We want children to experience delight when opening their shoebox gifts. And may that delight cause them to feel a deep desire to know more about this Jesus who loves them. And may they receive Jesus as Lord and Savior!
    Want to know more about OCC and packing great shoeboxes? Watch Yves Dushime's story: From Hatred to Love on blessingsinashoebox.com. It's the first video on the page of videos at www.blessingsinashoebox.com. His podcast with Kristi Graham is even more enthralling. His testimony underscores the importance of school supplies in a shoebox!
    Are you interested in an eternal relationship with Jesus Christ? Believe in Jesus, admit you have sinned and ask him to forgive your sins. Trust Him and receive him as your Savior and Lord. Read all about God in the Bible, starting in Genesis with creation to understand God and sin and the punishment for sin. Also, read the New Testament to understand what Jesus did, so that we could have forgiveness and redemption from sin. The Bible reveals God's plan for his children and the world. It tells us that Jesus will come soon for his children and we get to live forever with him!
    We are blessed to have the Bible so we can know all about him.
    I am very glad I can participate with Operation Christmas Child to bring the good news of Jesus and eternal life to the children around the world who have never heard about him. We are making a difference for eternity!

    Elementary kids love sharpening pencils. I have a spot in my classroom for kids to sharpen my new pencils for charity. They know I do this for my charity, so it's when they have time When they sharpen 16 pencils, I will give them a free "fun" pencil of their choice when thrybguve me the sharpened pencils. It takes quite a while to sharpen 16 pencils, so I appreciate when they do it.

      Some people really don't go anywhere. That seems pretty obvious to me... It's nice that she's trying... But I'm pretty sure a bunch of string isn't a great gift and they won't know and most of the ages can really do that easily without help

    I wish the videos like these were much much shorter. Most of us shop for vids that are less than 5 minutes so we can quickly glean info. We just don't have time to look through twelve 10 to 28 min videos to gain ideas.
