What is Operation Christmas Child (Shoe Box) Ministry?
Operation Christmas Child sends a message of hope to
children in desperate situations around the world through gift-filled shoe
boxes and Christian literature. This program provides an opportunity for
individuals of all ages to be involved in a simple, hands-on missions
project that reaches out to suffering children while focusing on the true
meaning of Christmas–Jesus Christ, God's greatest gift. In 2000, Operation
Christmas Child
collected over 4.1 million shoe boxes worldwide and distributed them to
children in more than 75 countries.
