Operation Christmas Child

     For the past six seasons I have made a commitment to help with Operation Christmas Child  sponsored by Samaritan's Purse.  You may know of it as the shoebox project.  Millions of shoe boxes filled with candy, toys, toiletries, and other fun things for children are shipped around the world. 
     To me it is the closest thing to Santa's Workshop that I know of.  I help in the data processing area. The floor area of the warehouse is filled with boxes, conveyor tables and workers.  It is a great thing to see all the young people, senior citizens, and other groups helping to make this project happen. 
     Thank you to all who have worked and given something to help someone.  Christmas is a wonderful time to reach out to others.
