Operation Christmas Child is a project of Samaritan’s Purse, an international relief organization. OCC provides local partners around the world with shoeboxes filled with small toys, hygiene items, and school supplies as a means of reaching out to children in their communities with the good news of Jesus.
Wildwood collects donations of supplies each year, then packs and ships these simple gifts to children affected by war, poverty, natural disaster, famine, and disease.

The collection area is in the collection box next to the Resource Center. You can drop off donation items during our office hours or on Sundays.
Below is the link to the Amazon Registry, where you can purchase items for OCC without having to leave your home!
You can also give towards the cost of shipping by clicking the “Give Now” button. In the drop-down indicate “Missions”.
Through Operation Christmas Child outreach events, boys and girls hear the Good News of Jesus and receive a tangible expression of God’s love through one of our prayerfully packed shoeboxes. Each shoebox recipient is offered a follow-up discipleship program, The Greatest Journey. Through trained local teachers, boys and girls learn to follow Jesus and share Him with friends and family.
