OPERATION CHRISTMAS CHILD


This year Skyview is participating in Operation Christmas Child!  Many Operation Christmas Child supporters and donors are unaware of how God is working through shoe box gifts to open the door for churches to share the message of Jesus with children, families, and communities.  As we and other churches share Christ through shoe boxes and follow-up discipleship materials, millions of children and families are coming to know Jesus.  Come and pick up your shoebox to fill!  Shoe boxes are available this weekend! Please note that the last day of collection is November 27, 2011.
