November/December Mission of the Month Operation Christmas Child
Christmas is coming! St. Mark Lutheran Church is again partnering with Samaritan’s Purse and their Operation Christmas Child Mission to send Christmas gift boxes to children in need around the world. All you have to do is fill a box with age-appropriate items and bring the box to St. Mark anytime before November 22nd. You can fill any shoebox-size box you have at home, or pick up an empty box from the church office. If you are hesitant to shop in the store because of COVID-19, you can build a box online through the Samaritan’s Purse website this year. You can also purchase a “Follow Your Box” label so that you can track where in the world your specific box will be given to a child. See the links and documents below for directions, gift suggestions, and box labels. Please email the church office at stmark@stmarkchurch.net if you have any questions.
