Samaritan's Purse is one of the greatest and most practical mission agency's in the entire world. As a mission outreach ministry, Samaritan's Purse has a vision to reach children all over the world for JESUS. They have an amazing way to fulfill this vision. Operation Christmas Child is the method they use to fulfill the vision of reaching children.
At Southside, our goal is to collect 400 boxes this year. We will bring the boxes to the alter on November 14 and dedicate them to JESUS. Please join me in praying about how you and your family can be used for the glory of God to reach children by giving them simple gifts. As the children receive the gifts, the missionaries will bring them together in villages and share JESUS with them.
Today, our family began working on our boxes. Tonight, as I walked into the sunroom and saw some of the boxes on top of the piano, I was overwhelmed with emotion as I thought about how those simple gifts could possibly be used to reach children in certain areas of the world who could be the ones that God uses to reach their nations with the gospel in years to come.
We are also serving as a regional collection center this year for Operation Christmas Child. Please pray about helping us collect boxes from all over central NC during the third week of November. I know that each one who chooses to serve in this way will be blessed.
