Samaritan's Purse Operation Christmas Child

Pender will be collecting packed Shoebox gifts for Samaritan's Purse Operation Christmas Child through November 23.  Shoebox gifts are distributed around the world to children to demonstrate the love of Jesus, and invite them to learn about our savior. For more information, see the display in the Narthex.

Additionally, items are needed for boxes packed by Pender's children and youth. Suggestions are small toys, dolls and stuffed animals, toothbrushes, washcloths, combs, hair accessories, crayons, pens (no pencils needed), thin notebooks, etc. A collection box will be in the Narthex starting October 25.

Another way to help is to make a $10 donation per box towards shipping & logistics, printing and program expenses.  Add OCC to your memo or note in your online donation.  For more information, go to the OCC website at: https://www.samaritanspurse.org/operation-christmas-child/
