Operation Christmas Child

Good News. Great Joy.

Operation Christmas Child

Every year, we partner with Samaritan’s Purse to send gift-filled Operation Christmas Child shoeboxes to children in need around the world together with the message of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The amazing journey of a simple shoebox gift begins with you and results in evangelism, discipleship, and multiplication.

On October 11, 2026, River Community Church and Sonrise Church built and filled 514 shoeboxes boxes together! Through November 22, there is still time to bring items or even take empty shoeboxes home to fill with gifts that will bring joy to young children. Last year, we filled 697 together. Let's beat that number this year!
Thank you for partnering with us as we seek to deliver Good News of Great Joy, one shoebox at a time!
