18,560 Operation Christmas Child Shoeboxes from Rhode Island and Southeastern Massachusetts headed to Children throughout the World!


Operation Christmas Child, a project of Samaritan’s Purse, collects Shoebox gifts – filled with school supplies, hygiene items, and fun toys – and delivers them to children in need around the world.  These gift filled shoeboxes demonstrate God’s love in a tangible way. For many children these are the first gifts they have ever received. What a wonderful way to celebrate and tell the world about the Good News of the birth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!

Shoeboxes are packed by individuals, families and Churches.  You can also Build a Box Online. You pick the items and they will pack the box. How easy is that! Simply go to www.samaritanspurse.org.
