E-Mail 'Operation Christmas Child Pictures from Ecuador' To A Friend

I just watched this video and sobbed, how amazing. I wondered, how did you find out a way to join their team? I went on a 12 day mission trip over 2 years ago, traveled to Medellin, Colombia to work and serve street children and it was absolutely a life-changing experience. I hope you get to go again sometime in the future. I’d love to see a blog post with a list of really practical things to put in the boxes beside the old standbys and what’s suggested on the OCC website. One year my kids and I did a musical theme, so along with shoes and hard candy we include musical items that did not require batteries of any sort. We always try to put things in there that will have a long life, no battery powered anything…I’m thinking they won’t necessarily have the means to go buy batteries. I love doing this activity with my kids every year.
