Operation Christmas Child is here! Be a part of blessing a child with a gift this Christmas. The process is simple: 1) Get a shoebox (we have these available in the SpIL annex and by request if you do not have one you can use). 2) Pick whether you will make a shoebox for a girl or a boy. 3) Get things to put in the shoebox. There is a list of suggested items and a list of items you cannot put into the box including perishable food, liquids, etc. For a complete list, visit the Samaritan’s Purse website. Finally, put a rubber band around it, put a sticky note on it identifying what living area you are from, and drop it off in the Bruin Den.
Empty boxes will be available in the Bruin Den this week, and all boxes must be dropped off by 2 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 21. There will be a competition between living areas, and the one that wins will get an ice cream party!
