Operation Christmas Child!

My family has been so blessed and the kids wanted to share their joy and blessings with other children around the world. Each year, Samaritan's Purse sends out thousands of shoe boxes filled with gifts and the message of hope to children in impoverished countries. I don't know that these boxes will find their way to Ukraine where our future children are, and I won't be able to see the look on these kids faces when they get their box where ever they might be, but I know that Jesus loves the little children. A lot. Here are some pictures of the girls preparing the boxes. They spent a lot of time picking out just the right things for each one.

Here's Zoƫ;s finished product.
Here she is putting it together.
Addie's finished box.

Madly wrapping and writing. Addie included her memory verse, "I can do all things through Him who gives me strength" Philippians 4:13. Of course they'll probably need a translator to figure that one out.
