This is an increase of 750 gospel opportunities.
However, we are still far below where we were in 2019.
Let's set a goal of meeting or exceeding our 2019 totals during the year of 2022.
It's not too late to pack a box for this year.
JUST CLICK HERE. THE COST IS $25/BOX.
(while this sounds expensive, this includes the $9. shipping)
You can also start purchasing and packing at home. If you need shoeboxes, please see Teresa!
New for 2021, Samaritan Purse has purchased a building in Chicago.
It will be turned into a ministry center as well as a processing center.
Praising God for Millions of Gospel Opportunities in 2021!
Join us in praising God for 10,505,155 shoebox gifts packed and donated worldwide! This represents 10,505,155 children and Gospel opportunities that you made possible. Millions of these children will go on to complete The Greatest Journey discipleship program, in which they will learn more about following Christ.
This worldwide number includes 9,127,591 shoeboxes donated in the U.S, with over 315,000 built online! Fulfillment of the Build a Shoebox Online gifts began just a few days ago at the Charlotte Processing Center.
Connect Volunteers, we praise God for you! In the midst of another challenging year, you trusted God and continued working faithfully on your Area Teams. God has blessed your efforts, and we are thanking Him for this harvest of Gospel opportunities—over and above our goal!
Please continue to pray with us. We are asking God to prepare the hearts of children and their families to receive the Gospel. Pray also for the Ministry Partners who are taking these gifts to children all over the world and leading The Greatest Journey.
We can’t wait to see how God works through these shoebox gifts this year. It’s a privilege to serve with you in this ministry.
Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen. – Ephesians 3:20-21
