You will bless a child in
Eswatini
Located in southern Africa, Eswatini is one of the world’s remaining absolute monarchies. Formerly Swaziland, the nation is known today as an exporter of sugar. Samaritan’s Purse began delivering Operation Christmas Child shoebox gifts to children in this nation in 1999. Later in 2011, we started offering The Greatest Journey, our follow-up discipleship program designed especially for shoebox recipients, in this nation.
Read a Story from the Field
Senamile, 12, was encouraged by God’s Word when receiving an Operation Christmas Child shoebox. “I like Genesis 1:27. It says that God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created them male and female. The book of Genesis makes me happy about God’s creation, because God saw that to create is good.”
Pray for Your Shoebox Recipient
“Whatever things you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive.”—Matthew 21:22
Please don’t stop praying for the boy or girl that you first lifted up when you packed your shoebox. Continue to ask God to soften his or her heart to the Gospel of Jesus Christ, so that he or she will follow Him all the days of their life. Pray also for families and entire communities to be transformed as God’s love is shared through your simple gift.
La Gran Aventura
After your shoebox gift delights a boy or girl, you can give them the opportunity to participate in The Greatest Journey.
Taught by trained local teachers, this 12-lesson discipleship program shows children how to follow Christ and share Him with others. As boys and girls share the Scripture stories they learn in class, their friends and family come to faith—growing churches, starting new congregations, and transforming communities by the power of the Gospel.
