Donate Items
If you don’t want to fill a whole box on your own, you can help by donating individual items or purchasing bulk orders so that we can pack boxes together (keep scrolling for more information about our packing party.) Tap the images below for suggestion lists and items.
Make a Financial Donation
There are many costs that go into making this project possible. Things like shipping, supplies, and extra items. If you are unable to purchase items on your own this is a great way to still participate in the project! All donations will go towards Samaritan’s Purse - Operation Christmas Child. These donations are tax deductible.
Come to the Packing Party
Saturday, October 31st from 9am-12pm in the Fellowship Hall at Freedom Hill.
We will gather together to create filled boxes with the miscellaneous donated items. We will also write cards and notes of encouragement to include in the boxes. Lastly, we will pray over the many boxes we fill.
This is our main project for Missions month so we want our whole church family to be involved, the whole family included! It’s a great way to get your kids involved and show them the meaning of serving and spreading the love of Jesus across the globe.
