Operation Christmas Child

Next Sunday, November 20th, is the very last opportunity to drop-off your shoeboxes!

Operation Christmas Child reaches out to children around the world in desperate situations, bringing joy and hope through gift-filled shoeboxes, reminding them that they are loved and not forgotten. 

Would you like to get more involved and help to coordinate this ministry at NSAC? It entails a 6-week commitment from mid-October. Chat to Michiel or Brenda Smit at 778-877-5313.
