Operation Christmas Child
Kick-Off Sunday
We’re so glad you’re here! Today’s service looks a little different, and for a great reason!
Today we have a guest speaker from Operation Christmas Child. Growing up in Rwanda, Alex Nsengimana experienced firsthand the tragedies of his nation’s genocide. At the height of tribal unrest, the genocide claimed the lives of his caregivers. Fleeing for his life, Alex escaped gunmen and eventually ended up in an orphanage. He received a shoebox from Operation Christmas Child a year later and remembers being so excited to have a gift to call his own. The shoebox gift sowed seeds of hope and love that he desperately needed. He realized that God had a specific plan for his life. Alex now serves with Operation Christmas Child, paying forward the hope and love he received through a shoebox gift.
Thanks for spending part of your Sunday with us. We’re so glad you’re here—we are better together!
