We had an Operation Christmas Child shoebox packing party at church. We gathered together, watched a film on Samaritan's Purse and Operation Christmas Child and packed our boxes. A picture was taken of each packer and included in the boxes.
After our boxes were done, we had a fellowship meal together of pizza and salad and then the candy came out. A lady at our church made 50+ graham cracker gingerbread houses and provided trays of candy at each table for everyone to decorate their own little house. It was a sweet beginning to start thinking about Christmas.

Packed with prayers
The gift of giving is really a gift that blesses my heart. It puts the season into perspective and gently humbles my heart at the abundance surrounding us. Packed with prayers - for the child receiving and for my heart to stay focused on the real Gift of the season during the busy of the upcoming weeks.
