Operation Christmas Child
Operation Christmas Child - By Judah McIntosh
Do you want to help a child in need?
Operation Christmas Child is taking place at Border Rivers Christian College and and is being run by the Year 4 Students.
Operation Christmas Child is a program that gives children in need an opportunity to feel what it’s like to receive a gift for Christmas.
The children will also receive a Bible and 12 scripture lessons.
If you want to participate, collect a box from the College and buy some gifts to pack into the box for the children.
You also have to add $12.50 to the box for postage.
The Year Four classroom will be open before school to collect boxes and a brochure that tells you what to pack. Boxes need to be returned by the 13th of October (Term 4, Week 2).
A display will be set up in the Year Four classroom. If there are any questions, the Year Fours are happy to answer them.
Information may also be found online on the Samaritan’s Purse website (www.occ.samaritanspurse.org.au).
I think Operation Christmas Child is a great opportunity to give to the poor.
