Operation Christmas Child 2015

This Thanksgiving season let's give our kids the opportunity to think about and give to others who may not have as much as they do. Participate and involve your kids in packing shoe boxes for Operation Christmas Child! We have tools you can use to make this a fun, memorable and meaningful family event.



Here's what you need to know:
