The
“Operation Christmas Child” shoeboxes arrived!
We
never know the exact date the shoeboxes will arrive until the big trailer rolls
into town, and we rush to gather volunteers to unload at the storage unit.
This
year, almost 20 people gathered to do the tiring work of unloading the trailer,
counting every shoebox, and organizing the boxes in the storage unit. Though exhausting, the work is
joyful,
remembering that each shoebox unpacked is an opportunity for a child to hear the
Gospel of Jesus Christ!
Over 10,000 shoeboxes arrived in our tiny state
of Tlaxcala this year; may over 10,000 children know the love of Jesus through
them this Christmas season!
