Boundless Grace
Baptist Church
Boundless Grace began its Shoebox Ministry in 2013, sending 86 shoebox gifts to children across the world.
In 2023, the Operation Christmas Child project of Samaritan's Purse collected 10 million shoebox gifts in the US alone. Combined with those collected from partnering countries, the ministry sent over 11.3 million shoebox gifts to children worldwide, including many who are suffering from war, poverty, disease, and disaster. Since its beginning in 1993, more than 220 million gift-filled shoeboxes have been delivered in more than 170 countries and territories!
2024 Goals
1,500 - Shoeboxes
1,500 - The Greatest Journey
200 - Challenge for Boundless Grace Families
The Greatest Journey is a 12-lesson discipleship course designed for Operation Christmas Child shoebox recipients. Children who participate in the program learn how to follow Christ and share Him with others. As they do, entire families and communities are transformed by the power of the Gospel, and churches are started.
Every $6 gift provides one more child with an opportunity to learn about God's love for them as they study the Bible and are taught by a trained local teacher. Upon completion of the course, they receive a graduation certificate and a New Testament in their own language.
Please continue to pray for our Shoebox ministry. Our volunteers meet each week to work on the 1500 boxes that will be sent out. We will also be a drop-off location for other churches. This is a HUGE undertaking, so please an eye out for work days. If you would like to be more involved with this ministry, please call or email the church office to find out how.
2023 Shoeboxes
Last year, we sent 1,500 boxes along with another 109 donated by Boundless Grace families!
Pray for the precious children who will receive our shoe boxes, and for the Churches and pastors who distribute them and follow-up with the families to share the sweet love of Jesus.
