One of the benefits of being a part of the United Methodist Church is that we can leverage the connections established by the Church around the world.

What if a Shoebox was the first step toward following Christ? A small shoebox can have a big impact! What goes into the box is fun, but what comes out of it is eternal. A small box can teach children about the love of God, lead him or her to faith in Jesus Christ, inspire Pastors and plant new churches! Be a part of changing children’s lives all over the world in Jesus’ Name through the power of a simple gift with Operation Christmas Child.

Over several decades, our church has been supporting the sick and poor living in South Sudan. From providing financial resources for building schools where kids have an opportunity to become educated, structures and medications for hospitals, bicycles for pastors, wells for clean water, and much more, we have impacted the lives of many people.
