"...a great multitude which no man could count, out of every nation and all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb..."
Revelation 7:9
We share this vision of Heaven; a place of grandeur before the throne of God, where peoples from all nations will be eternally unified and worshipping the One True God. For this to be a reality, though, we must do our part in taking God's Gospel to the ends of the earth. That is why, we have partnered alongside Samaritan's Purse in their ministry Operation Christmas Child. This ministry aims to provide some necessities, lots of joy, and the life-changing Word of God to children around the world! For more about this mission and their work, check out this video!
National Collection Week

Financial Gifts
Another way you can help is to help cover the cost of shipping. A donation of $12.50 is welcome at anytime to cover the shipping of a singular shoebox. If you're too busy to go shopping, this is the perfect way to get involved!
Over 300 boxes packed in 2024!
The Atlanta Distribution Center
Over the past 4 years, we have expanded our participation with Operation Christmas Child and have began volunteering at the Atlanta Distribution Center. For more information and dates, please check out the event listings below.
What is a Distribution Center?
A distribution center is a location that shoeboxes that are packed arrive at first, before being sent overseas. There are multiple across the country, Atlanta being the closest to us.
What do you do there?
Distribution centers double check boxes, to make sure items are appropriate, that boxes are full, and that boys and girls boxes are separated and sorted correctly.
How long is a shift?
We typically work a 4-hour shift when we attend! Throughout this shift, there are an assortment of jobs to do. You can either stay on the same job, or switch it up depending on interests and need. (Bathroom breaks are allowed; don't worry!)
I'm interested! How do I sign-up?
Contact our Distribution Center coordinator, Luke Judkins, to sign-up!
