Operation Christmas Child

We at Victoria Point Baptist support Operation Christmas Child each year as a church. Operation Christmas Child is a unique project of Samaritan’s Purse that brings joy and hope to children in desperate situations around the world through gift-filled shoe boxes. It provides an opportunity for people of all ages to be involved in a simple but hands-on project that has the power to transform children’s lives. In 2008, our teams in Australia and New Zealand delivered over 300,000 gift-filled shoe boxes to South East Asia and the South Pacific. Globally, Samaritan’s Purse distributed an estimated 7.6 million shoe boxes to children in 105 countries. As each shoe box gift is delivered, it is treasured by the child who receives it, and is a lasting reminder that he or she is precious to God. We encourage all ministries to get involved during sorting of the boxes which is held during the months of October to December each year.
