Manchester Methodist Church Serving as Drop-off for Operation Christmas Child

Children across the world in need are being blessed this Christmas season through Operation Christmas Child.

It’s a project through Samaritan’s Purse, with Manchester Methodist Church serving as a central drop-off location again this year. Wayne Birkenholz says you have the opportunity to pack a shoebox gift filled with fun toys, school supplies, and personal care items to go to children across the world.

The filled shoeboxes may be dropped off at Manchester Methodist Church during specific times throughout this week and through the weekend too. You can find those times posted on our website under the Community Message Board. 

You can find more information about Operation Christmas Child and how to fill the shoeboxes online at samaritanspurse.org.

Operation Christmas Child has been collecting and delivering shoebox gifts to children worldwide for more than three decades. This year, they hope to collect enough shoeboxes to reach another 12 million children.
