Last year, we sent 1150 boxes to children in over 170 countries and territories., many of them "unreached" (missionaries are prohibited). With the help of individuals, business owners, organizations, and churches, we can set a new goal of 1300 boxes. Imagine 1300 children, who cherish even a cup and spoon, opening a Christmas Box from Metcalfe County. What goes in a box? Our boxes focus on hygiene products, personal items, school supplies, random objects that kids enjoy, plus a wow toy. (List available on www.samaritanspurse.org) Then, at the processing center, volunteers place a New Testament and a booklet entitled, "The Greatest Journey," inside each box, helping to fulfill the Great Commission to spread the Word throughout the world.
