Filling those famous red and green shoeboxes, which may become the first gift ever received by a child in an impoverished country, are little Maddison Caudron, Lead Pastor Ed Lehman and Edna Klaus.
Operation Christmas Child is a hands-on way for Canadians to bless struggling children in the developing world by filling shoeboxes with toys, hygiene items, school supplies and other items that will be useful or will delight a boy or girl who is under fourteen years of age. Century Meadows Baptist Church is once again one of 400 collections centres in Canada aiming to gather hundreds of thousands of gifts. They will then be distributed in advance of Christmas Day by the international relief agency Samaritan’s Purse. Pick up your shoebox and fill it with crafts and activities, toys, personal care items, clothing, accessories and a “wow” item that will be remembered for life by someone less fortunate. Empty boxes can be picked up, filled and then dropped off again at a wide variety of local businesses.
Shoebox Collection Week is November 12 to 18, 2018
