Operation Christmas Child 2025

SDBC is once again participating in Operation Christmas Child. This mission is to provide local partners around the world with shoeboxes filled with:

  • Something to love

  • Something to wear

  • Something for school

  • Something to play with

  • Something for personal hygiene

  • Something special

    As a means of reaching out to children in their own communities with the good news of Jesus Christ.

4 ways you can be involved:

  • Collect a shoebox from the church foyer and fill it with items according to the above list (Boy or Girl). Return completed shoeboxes to the church foyer by Sunday 19th October.

  • Donate funds in the receptacle provided to cover the delivery and processing of the boxes. Each box costs $12.50 to deliver.

  • Pack a shoebox online. Go to www.samaritanspurse.org.au for this option.

  • Pray for the safe delivery of the boxes, and for the children who will receive these boxes to be open to hearing about Jesus.

For more information, please contact the Church Office.

It’s time to get packing!
