The West County Church’s Adventurer Club participated in Operation Christmas Child, organized by Samaritan’s Purse. Club leader
Amber Shaus shared that donations from Adventurer families and local church members were enough to fill 50 shoeboxes for children in other countries living in poverty.
As the children packed the boxes with school supplies, toiletries, outdoor clothing items, books, and toys, they prayed over each one and talked about the needs of others. This was a wonderful opportunity for these young people to serve and to learn the importance of thinking beyond themselves.
