Operation Christmas Child Shoebox Collection

Ridgecrest Baptist Church actively supports Operation Christmas Child, a ministry of Samaritan’s Purse. Each year, the adults and youth of Ridgecrest work together to purchase toys and supplies to pack into shoe boxes for worldwide distribution. Once all the items are purchased, the boxes are packed and labeled to be taken to a local collection center. During collection week, the youth of Ridgecrest and their leaders volunteer one night of service at the collection center.
