Church collects Christmas shoebox gifts for children worldwide
First Baptist Church of Aiken serves as a collection center for Operation Christmas Child, part of Samaritan's Purse. Volunteers seek shoeboxes filled with inexpensive gifts to brighten lives of children in war torn or impoverished areas. Last year about 1,000 shoeboxes were collected locally with 20 plus participating churches and groups this year. Collection times run Nov 13 to 21 in the church fellowship hall with specific daily hours and appointment options available.
