Operation Christmas Child


Well tonight I am creating 2 boxes for Operation Christmas Child. I love this time of year!! I think that this is my 4th or 5th year of putting these together for a child somewhere overseas. It really makes me feel rewarded by giving to these children. I remember a few Christmases as a child when our church family would make "care" boxes for my family and it meant so much to us. My prayer is that the children that receive these boxes will be truly blessed and learn the true meaning of Christmas. I put some lollipops, candy canes, slinky's, silly putty, crayons, pencils, activity books, toothpaste and brush in the boxes. I love Christmas and am so thankful for the baby Jesus that was born on that day! Now I am off to wrap the boxes. I am behind this year....I have to drop them off by Friday!
