Christmas in July Mission Project

Have you noticed the stores? Yep. It is only July, but the displays are full of two things: back-to-school supplies and Christmas. Isn't that wonderful? Seriously. I mean it.Back-to-school time is perfect for packing those boxes for Operation Christmas Child.

The school supply sales have great prices. It is easy to stock up on everything a child needs for school. . . wherever he or she lives:

• crayons
• pencils
• colored pencils
• erasers
• markers
• rulers
• scissors
• glue
• paper
• notebooks

 

You don't have to fill the box only with school supplies, but you can add the fun things, toiletries, and clothing items later.

Earlier I blogged about a backpack mission project. Are these things in the Bible? I think so. . .

. . . the Lord Jesus himself said: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’   Acts 20:35b   (NIV)
