The residents at Cool Well Community in Mechanicsville have been busy preparing for an Operation Christmas Child Packing Party that was held in October at a resident’s home. Sixteen volunteers packed and many more donated to this special event. Operation Christmas Child is a unique project organized by Samaritan’s Purse that delivers gift-filled shoeboxes to needy children around the world, sharing God’s love in a tangible way. Before receiving their shoeboxes, the gospel message is shared with them and many take this message home to their family and friends.
Last year, over 9.1 million shoeboxes were collected worldwide. Since 1993, over 188 million children have received a shoebox in over 170 countries. For many of the children, the shoeboxes filled with school supplies, hygiene items and toys is the first gift they have ever received. Locally, there are over 100 churches and organizations in our extended community that participate in this ministry, plus many individuals who shop and pack. Nov. 15 to 22 was National Collection Week. This year, the designated drop-off locations in our immediate area were New Bethesda Baptist Church in Mechanicsville and the Dover Baptist Association in Lakeridge Park. The website https:// www.samaritanspurse.org/operationchristmas-child/drop-off-locations/ has more information about Operation Christmas Child.
If your church or community group is not already involved and would like more information, contact Peggy Cross at lawguy101@aol.com.
If you could not pack a box in time for a physical drop off at the Mechanicsville churches, you may build custom shoeboxes online for a donation of $25 per box. The URL for these contactless options is: www. samaritanspurse.org/buildonline.
