She is accompanied by her daughter, Brenda Faubion. Operation Christmas Child is a project of Samaritan’s Purse that collects packed shoebox gifts for delivery to needy children around the world.
Margaret Williams of Lometa heard about a project that ships gifts internationally to children and shares the hope of Jesus Christ.
After attending an area workshop to learn more about the project, Williams gathered a group of 10 people in 2015 to commit their church to pack shoeboxes and to collect shoeboxes from churches in the area. The group packed 483 shoebox gifts that year.
