Operation Christmas Child is a fun and simple, hands-on project of Samaritan’s Purse which asks people to fill shoe boxes with a variety of gifts to bless the lives of children living in desperate situations in the developing world.
Each year Westview participates in two key ways:
1. Members of our church community fill and contribute shoeboxes.
2. As a distribution, collection and processing centre for participating schools, churches
and community groups in the Montreal area.
A small shoebox can have a big impact. What goes into the box is fun, but what comes out of it is eternal. Be a part of changing children's lives all over the world in Jesus' Name through the power of a simple gift. Good News. Great Joy.

Samaritan’s Purse - Operation Christmas Child: Prayer Requests
Each shoebox is a gospel opportunity, each shoebox represents a child who will hear of God’s love, and our desire is that each shoebox will be covered in prayer!
Help us cover all these boxes through prayer.
