Operation Christmas Child: First Grade Eagles in Action Service Project

Operation Christmas Child

Get a Box to fill as a family

We are excited to be able to tell kids around the world about the gift of Jesus through Operation Christmas Child. Each grade will have a shoebox to pack. This is how you can help us with our project:

· Bring one (or more) item to put in the box in your classroom

· Pick something you would like to get.

· Remember, it has to be small and can be inexpensive (Dollar Store)

· No food (not even toothpaste, gum, or mints)

· Click on the link for lots of ideas. Fill my Shoebox Ideas

OR

·  Donate some money to help cover shipping costs – each box costs $9 to ship

· Fill your own box – Pick one up in the school lobby or the church narthex and return by November 16th

 

The sooner you can bring your items, the better. We will deliver them before Thanksgiving – Thanks for helping us!
