Praise God for the 317 Operation Christmas Child (OCC) Shoeboxes that Round Hill Baptist Church (RHBC) donated in 2023! Our 2023 OCC Shoeboxes were sent to children in Mexico, Peru, Honduras, and many un-named, hard-to-reach areas. In 2024, let us exceed in sharing tangible gifts of love to even more children. Every shoebox donated is an opportunity for a child to hear the good news of Jesus Christ.
It is time again to pick up your shoeboxes from our church and begin packing them for the children. School supplies and such are on sale in the stores so this makes it a perfect time to purchase items for your OCC shoebox. And don't forget to pack a 'WOW' item such as a soccer ball or stuffed animal. As you pack your shoebox remember to pray over it for God to bless the child who receives it.
Shoeboxes are due back to the church by November 17 of this year. A donation of $10 to cover the cost of the Greatest Gift booklet, Greatest Journey Discipleship materials, training of gospel teachers in the countries, and of course shipping and handling, is much appreciated.
An alternative way to pack a box is to go online at Build Shoeboxes Online
As a side note Round Hill Baptist Church is a drop off location for our community and this year it will be held from November 18-25, 2024. Times are yet to be determined. If you would like to volunteer again or for the first time to help with the receiving, crating, praying over, delivering to central drop-off, and accounting for donated shoeboxes from around the donors of King George County, see Jim or Cathy Graham to sign up.
