It is time for Operation Christmas Child shoebox collection.
“Children around the world need to know that God loves them and there is hope. A simple shoebox gift opens the door to share about the true hope that can only be found in Jesus Christ.”
Our mission is to provide local partners around the world with shoebox gifts filled with small toys, hygiene items and school supplies. Continuing as a Drop Off location is Cornerstone Christian Church, 3600 South Banker in Effingham.
A few packing reminders:
- Use standard sized shoebox or plastic shoebox
- Pack for a boy or girl and decide the age (2-4, 5-9 or 10-14).
- Fill with other fun toys, hygiene items, and school supplies.
- You can include a personal note and a photo.
- Please do not include candy; toothpaste; used items; war-related items; chocolate or food; liquids or lotions; breakable items.
