Operation Christmas Child Shoeboxes

Thank you to everyone who filled a shoebox for Operation Christmas Child this month! Over 300 shoeboxes were donated by you, our generous Gateway family!

Samaritan’s Purse has been using shoeboxes filled with small gifts since 1993 to change the lives of children all over the world. There are many amazing stories about how the simple shoeboxes filled with gifts have impacted millions. Parents, I encourage you to watch a few of these short videos from Samaritan's Purse with your children. They tell about how God’s love has been shown through Operation Christmas Child and how lives have been changed. After watching, pray together with your family for the children who will receive the boxes that we filled this year.
