One of our favorite ways of doing this is by partnering with Operation Christmas Child, a ministry of Samaritan\u2019s Purse, to provide shoeboxes full of gifts to children in need all over the world!<\/p>\n<p>We collect year-round donations of items and funds to cover shipping costs to get the most \u201cbang for our buck\u201d! In October we begin packing the items collected into shoeboxes called GO (Gospel Opportunity) boxes. They are then dedicated on the second Sunday in November. If you have no interest in shopping you might consider packing a shoebox on-line.

These are young athletes active in body (for their sport) and in spirit (for the Lord), and they very much appreciate the spiritual bread they receive during their Bible Study, followed by physical bread that our church members provide for their fellowship time afterwards. Sometimes our cooks are called upon to provide quiches or pies or other baked goods to feed these students.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row layout=&#8221;stretch_row_content_no_spaces&#8221; eq_height=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1448147381081{background-color: #f6f6f6 !important;}&#8221;][vc_column el_alignment=&#8221;middle&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1448396971426{padding-top: 60px !important;padding-right: 60px !important;padding-bottom: 60px !important;padding-left: 60px !important;}&#8221; offset=&#8221;vc_col-lg-6 vc_col-md-12&#8243;][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Feeding Families at the Ronald McDonald House&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:h2|font_size:30|text_align:left|color:%233a3a3a|line_height:1&#8243; google_fonts=&#8221;font_family:Lora%3Aregular%2Citalic%2C700%2C700italic|font_style:400%20regular%3A400%3Anormal&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1647395075964{padding-bottom: 10px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1785017074807{padding-bottom: 20px !important;}&#8221;]The<span style=\"color: #c89b3c;\"> <a style=\"color: #c89b3c;\" href=\"https:\/\/rmhch.org\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Ronald McDonald House of Chapel Hill<\/a><\/span> helps provide housing and other care for families that have children in hospitals around the area.
