Once again the children at St Joseph's have been supporting Samaritans' Purse by putting together Christmas boxes. Operation Christmas Child brings joy, hope and the Good News of God's love to children in desperate situations around the world through gift-filled shoe boxes. Since 1993, more than 61 million shoe boxes have been packed, shipped, and delivered across the globe. People of all ages can be involved in this simple, hands-on missions project while focusing on the true meaning of Christmas—Jesus Christ.National Collection Week is November 17-24.
