Operation Christmas Child
Operation Christmas Child is the world’s largest children’s Christmas project – sending gift-filled shoeboxes to children in need around the world since 1990.
The children receiving shoeboxes will not only encounter God’s love through the gift they receive – many will also have the chance to attend a follow-up program run by the local church, where they can find out more about Jesus and have the chance to accept Him into their lives.

OCC in 2020
KCOG is once again participating in the Operation Christmas Child campaign.
Of all years this is the time to share Good News and Great Joy. The COVID-19 global pandemic has disrupted everyday life for millions of people around the world. Yet, Samaritan’s Purse continues to share the eternal hope of the Gospel and to serve in Jesus’ Name
Shoeboxes will be collected and processed throughout the UK this year taking into account local and national guidelines on COVID-19.
Shoeboxes are available from David McWhinnie and can either be collected from his house or he can arrange to drop off. Shoeboxes must be returned to the church during National Collection Week 9 - 16 November 2020. (see details below)
Shoeboxes can also be made online and more details about this can be found in the OCC website.
