How fun to shop for our Samaritan's Purse OCC shoebox gifts this year! We love to go to the Dollar Tree since we can get lots of bang for our bucks. While the girls did each fill a box for a girl their age, the rest of us made them for boys, age 10-14. Apparently that is the category that lacks the most boxes and they often have to give the older boys a girl's box. We bought lots of extras for that age group as our church is also having a packing party on November 10th. The best part was watching one of my blessings pull out an extra $10 of their own hard earned money to buy more gifts.
If you've never had the pleasure of packing a box for a child in need, this is the year to give it a try. You will be blessed as you share the Good News about Christmas.
