The Operation Christmas Child Shoebox is bringing smiles to the faces of children all over the world as they receive their gifts.
A heartwarming clip of two boys in Trinidad, overcome with joy as they open their Operation Christmas Child shoeboxes, is spreading joy and warming hearts across the country.
Operation Christmas Child, a project by Samaritan’s Purse, has been partnering with local churches in more than 160 countries and territories for the past 30 years to deliver shoebox gifts to boys and girls in need, while sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Individuals and churches fill these shoeboxes with essential hygiene items, comfort items, and small gifts for distribution to children in need. For many, it’s a priceless treasure they eagerly anticipate.
The video captures a group of boys sitting in rows, waiting excitedly to open their shoeboxes.
The moment they’re given the green light, they dive in, eagerly unpacking the surprises inside. Two boys are especially delighted, beaming as they discover a soccer ball and a stuffed animal in their boxes.
While these items may seem small to some, they mean the world to these children. These shoeboxes not only meet physical needs but also deliver the gospel of Jesus Christ, fulfilling spiritual needs and offering hope and joy to those who need it most.
