Join us for our annual Packing Party as we come together to fill shoeboxes with gifts and share hope through Samaritan’s Purse Operation Christmas Child!
Date: Monday, November 3, 2025
Time: 6:00–8:00 PM
Location: Fellowship Hall
Let’s Beat Last Year’s Record! Last year, together we sent 205 shoeboxes—including some built online. Let’s aim even higher this year—more is better!
What to Bring
A fully packed shoebox, a partially filled shoebox, or just yourself—ready to pack!
We’ll have 150 prepaid shipping labels. After those are used, shipping is $10 per shoebox. Please include cash or check (made out to Samaritan’s Purse) inside your shoebox, or pay online and track your box.
Build a Shoebox Online
For those who prefer the convenience, or want to reach children in more restrictive countries, “Build a Shoebox Online” is now $30 per box. It’s an easy and impactful way to participate, and a great value—consider building a box from anywhere!
Volunteer Opportunities
We’re looking for volunteers to help make this event a success!
Sunday, November 2nd: Set up for the Packing Party
Monday, November 3rd: Help with labeling, make treats to share, assist in the kitchen, or lend a hand with cleanup after the party

Shoebox Drop-Off
Packed shoeboxes can be delivered to the church between Sunday, November 2nd and Sunday, November 23rd—even if you can’t attend the Packing Party.
Let’s make a difference together—see you at the Packing Party!
