Pack A Shoebox!

 

We are so excited to be a part of Operation Christmas Child! FBCJ will be collecting your boxes on November 15th - 22nd.

“Let the children come to Me; do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of God.”
Mark 10:14, ESV

The mission of Operation Christmas Child is to demonstrate God’s love in a tangible way to children in need around the world. Through this project, Samaritan’s Purse partners with the local church worldwide to share the Good News of Jesus Christ and make disciples of the nations.

Operation Christmas Child gift-filled shoeboxes go to some of the most difficult to reach places on earth. That includes areas that are hostile to the Gospel, places where whole people groups are yet unreached, and hundreds of remote Pacific islands. Did you know that every box that is packed through Build a Shoebox Online goes to a hard-to-access region? Shoeboxes are used by local churches to share the Good News of Jesus Christ in all kinds of environments, from densely populated inner cities to deserts and jungles—even in places where the Name of Jesus has never been heard.

PACKING COLLECTION BOXES

 

Your are invited to help with the packing of boxes in cartons during collection week of November 18-25 in the Family Life Center.  When they are boxed up, we will take them to Lake Charles to be put on a tractor trailer and shipped to Dallas for processing before they are shipped overseas. 

Contact me by email, text or phone if you would like to help.  The amount of time you can give is not a problem no matter how much or little.

Operation Christmas Child

Operation Christmas Child is back again this year.  The Christmas Child Shoe boxes are available here at the church in the foyers and church office.

This year they ask that no toothpaste or candy be included because of the problems with customs in the different countries.

Return the shoe boxes to the church office by November 15th and they will be delivered to the drop off point for you.
