Operation Christmas Child
this month in upstreet!

October 2023

This October, UpStreet is learning about forgiveness and how we can be forgiven because of what Jesus did on the cross. But this message of forgiveness is not just for us to keep to ourselves, rather we are to share it with everyone!

UpStreet has a unique opportunity this year to partner with one of our amazing volunteers overseeing Operation Christmas Child in our area. During the month of October, UpStreet will be raising money to send Christmas boxes across the world! Kids are invited to bring money each week, or as a family you can build a box online. To do so, click here.

Our goal this month is to build 80 boxes.
UpStreet is financing 40 of those boxes.
Your kids are invited to help us build 40 more!

Any change donated in UpStreet will all go towards building a box.
Boxes built online are automatically reflected on our goal page.

How amazing is it that our kids will be learning about forgiveness while also sharing this great news of forgiveness with others across the world?

Thank you for partnering with us to share this incredible message of forgiveness! For questions, please contact Rachel at [email protected]

Talking about Forgiveness this October!

All month long kids will be diving into Scripture to learn about the forgiveness they are offered through Jesus. Each week, they will hear a different Bible story reinforcing the truth that forgiveness is available to them.
