Operation Christmas Child

samaritan’s purse

Every year Taneytown Baptist Church partners with Samaritan’s Purse and participates in Operation Christmas Child. You fill a shoebox with certain items and that shoebox is sent to a child in need somewhere in the world. It is a great way to show your love for others and to share the Gospel of Jesus. You can build a shoebox at home then drop it off at our church or you can build a shoebox online. Let’s spread some Christmas cheer!
