Operation Christmas Child


  • Grace Community Church 1600 South Anderson Avenue Newton, KS, 67114 United States (map)

The Samaritan's Purse project Operation Christmas Child collects shoebox gifts filled with fun toys, school supplies, and hygiene items -and delivers them to children in need around the world to demonstrate God's love in a tangible way. They will also receive a booklet with a gospel presentation inside. For many of these children, the gift-filled shoebox is the first gift they have ever received.

This year Grace will be a drop-off center for local churches. We are seeking volunteers willing to be the hands and feet of Jesus. Volunteer sign-up will occur in the foyer on October 27th and November 3rd. If you want to do so please contact Marilyn Bisbee by phone at 931-335-7239.

You can pick up a box on October 27th through November 17th at a table in hall near the sanctuary.

This is one way we can "Be The Church!!'“
