Operation Christmas Child
November 16, 2009

This week is National Collection Week for Operation Christmas Child. I want to encourage everyone to fill a shoe box for a child. We hope to carry on this tradition to Jaidan as part of our holiday ‘activities’. We want him to love to give and be excited about giving during this time of year!

We are doing 2 boxes this year… one from him and one from me and Jared. He is doing one for a 2-4 year old boy and we are doing one for a 10-14 year old boy. I’m excited to go shop & send it off!

We also want to incorporate more Jesus & less ‘santa’ during Christmas. Does anyone have ideas of how to do this? It’s so hard when the world focuses on things other than Jesus!! There are a few things we’ve done the past couple of years, but I know we could make it better! Any ideas please…
