Each year we take part in Operation Christmas Child, where we encourage people to give small Christmas Gifts in Shoeboxes for children around the world who may not get anything else at Christmas.
Leaflets about what to pack, along with ‘flatpack shoeboxes’ (a donation of 50p please) can be found at Church. You can read more about the project here :- https://www.samaritans-purse.org.uk/what-we-do/operation-christmas-child/
We collect the shoeboxes on what we call “Shoebox Sunday” which this year falls on Sunday 17th November.
At the service we’ll learn more about Operation Christmas Child and what happens to our shoeboxes as they are sent off.
If you can’t pack a physical shoebox yourself, you can ‘pack’ a Shoebox online at: https://shoeboxonline.samaritans-purse.org.uk/
