OCC National Collection Week, November 18-25, 2019

National Collection Week for Operation Christmas Child is Monday, November 18, 2019, through Monday, November 25, 2019.

The theme for 2019 is "Mission Possible." The mission of Operation Christmas Child is to provide local churches who are our ministry partners around the world with shoebox gifts as a way to reach children in their communities. For many children, this is the first gift they will ever receive. More important than the items inside the shoebox, the gifts are an opportunity to share God's love and the Good News of Jesus Christ with children and families in need.

"I sincerely hope and pray that your church/organization will give serious consideration to participating in this ministry opportunity," said Adair County Relations Coordinator Mark Fudge.

Again this year, the Columbia First Church of the Nazarene Wheet Fellowship Hall, located at 1200 Jamestown Street, Columbia, will be the drop off location for Adair County.

The dates and times for drop off are as follows:
  • Monday, November 18, 2019, from 5pmCT to 7pmCT
  • Tuesday, November 19, 2019, from 11:30amCT to 1:30pmCT
  • Wednesday November 20, 2019, from 5pmCT to 7pmCT
  • Thursday, November 21, 2019, from 9amCT to 11amCT
  • Friday, November 22, 2019, from 10amCT to 12pmCT
  • Saturday, November 23, 2019, from 9amCT to 11amCT
  • Sunday, November 24, 2019, from 2pmCT to 4pmCT
  • Monday, November 25, 2019, from 9amCT to 11amCT


The Bible tells us in Matthew 28:19-20, Go ye therefore and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Together we can make this "Mission Possible".

A simple gift, packed with love, can communicate hope and transform the lives of children and families worldwide!

Fudge stated, " I will be glad to share more information about this powerful global outreach. As part of the local Operation Christmas Child volunteer team, We are also here to serve in any way We can. Please feel free to contact me at 270-634-2919.
