Operation Christmas Child
Description
It’s time for Operation Christmas Child (OCC)! At Thomas Road, this collection initiative has become a true tradition and we look forward to the international impact we get to make each year as a church family. The shoe boxes that we collect go all around the world and bring the Gospel message to thousands. Our partner, Samaritan’s Purse has recorded that 1 out of 4 children who receive a box accept Jesus as the Lord and Savior. If you’d like to learn more about the world wide initiative, you can read all the details on the Samaritan’s Purse website, here.
Get Involved!
Ready to pack your box(es)? It’s easy—starting October 25, grab an empty OCC box, or two, from the Thomas Road lobby and bring it back filled with goodies from the shopping list by Sunday, November 15.
