OUR MISSION
Welcome to the website for the Fort Lauderdale Operation Christmas Child Volunteers, a passionate group of volunteers dedicated to spreading the transformative love of Jesus Christ to underprivileged children worldwide. Through our unwavering support of Operation Christmas Child, a remarkable initiative by Samaritan's Purse, we have the incredible opportunity to share the Good News of the Gospel while delivering gift-filled shoeboxes to millions of boys and girls in over 100 countries each year.
​
For many of these children, these shoeboxes represent not only their first-ever present but also an introduction to the true meaning of Christmas – the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ. As we pack these precious boxes with love and care, we plant seeds of hope, joy, and eternal truth that have the power to change lives forever.
The Fort Lauderdale Operation Christmas Child Volunteers strive to create awareness, expand volunteer participation, and increase donations to ensure that no child is left without experiencing the transformative power of God's love. You can join us in this sacred mission by attending our upcoming workshop events, where you can lend a helping hand and be a part of this extraordinary ministry. Alternatively, you can contribute by clicking on our wish list link to purchase essential items needed for packing the shoeboxes.
Together, we can be vessels of Christ's love, delivering not just material gifts, but the greatest gift of all – the opportunity for children to embrace the eternal hope found in the Gospel.
Acts 13:47
For this is what the Lord has commanded us:
"I have made you a light for the world that you may bring salvation to the ends of the earth."
