Operation Christmas Child is a project of Samaritan’s Purse, a Christian international relief organisation. Our mission is to provide local partners around the world with shoeboxes filled with small toys, hygiene items, and school supplies as a means of reaching out to children in their own communities with the Good News of Jesus Christ. We ship these simple gifts outside the United Kingdom to children affected by war, poverty, natural disaster, famine, and disease

Last year our church was a collection point from which just under 400 boxes were dispatched. This year (2023) we will again be a collection point. You can drop off your boxes at the church hall during the following times:

Tuesday 14th November: 3pm - 8pm

Thursday 16th November: 11am - 2pm

Saturday 18th November: 2pm - 4pm

Sunday 19th November: 12pm - 4pm

Thank you very much

Frances and Brian Darby are the coordinators - 01773 689983.
