As in recent years, St Andrew’s is participating in the Operation Christmas Child Shoebox Appeal organized by Samaritan’s Purse (an international Christian relief organization), whereby shoe boxes containing small gifts are sent to needy children around the world, regardless of their background or religious belief. This year the goal is to send two-thirds of shoeboxes from the UK to Ukraine or the neighbouring countries like Moldova and Romania that are hosting many Ukrainian refugee families. These simple gifts bring great joy to children who have very little. If you would like to participate, ready printed boxes & leaflets about the project are available in St Andrew’s.
Please could the boxes be returned to St Andrew’s by Sunday November 13th.
If you would like more information or if more boxes and leaflets are needed
please contact Christine on 0787 645 3965.
