What is Operation Christmas Child?

A small shoebox can have a big impact. What goes into the box is fun, but what comes out of it is eternal. Be a part of changing children’s lives all over the world in Jesus’ Name through the power of a simple gift with Operation Christmas Child®. 

We want boys and girls around the world to know that God loves them and has not forgotten them during this time of uncertainty. Children need great joy now more than ever. Most of all, they need the hope found only in the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Donate Items​

McGregor Baptist Church is a drop-off location! If you are unable to make or order a shoebox, donating an item or two contributes greatly to McGregor’s Shoebox Team!
