Operation Christmas Child 2025

FABC is collecting items for OCC shoeboxes, and we’ll pack them in November. Each shoebox is an opportunity for kids and their families to hear the Gospel, all around the world! Each Sunday School class is invited to collect a specific item. If you’re not in a class, you can still donate any listed items by placing them in the bins at both church entrances.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: If I want to make a donation for the OCC project, what do I do?

A: If you want to donate to the Outreach (includes shipping) costs, please make the check payable to Samaritan's Purse and turn it in to the church office. If you want to make a donation to buy items for the shoeboxes, make that check out to FABC and note that it is for OCC items. We will then purchase the items with that money.

Q: Since we have a goal of 600 shoeboxes, is every class expected to collect 600 items?

A: While it would be wonderful to have that quantity of each item, each class is encouraged to collect what they can. Every item listed cannot be put in every box, so we will use what is collected and divide it to make up our 600 shoeboxes.

Q: When do items need to be at church?

A: We will be collecting from now until the end of October so there is plenty of time to get your items in.
