Operation Christmas Child
Celebrating 25 Years of Giving Shoebox Gifts to Children in Need
Operation Christmas Child, a project of Samaritan's Purse, has delivered 157 million shoeboxes to boys and girls around the world. We praise God for so many children whose lives have been transformed because of a simple gift.
Seedbed Church invites you to share and be a blessing.
Packing party will be on November 3 & November 18
