Since 1993, led by Franklin Graham, Operation Christmas Child has provided children in regions suffering from poverty, war, and devastation with over 100 million shoebox gifts.
God has given each of us grace. Starting this past Monday, as Sweet T and the team closed out a mind-blowing National Collection Week, I began serving at the Dallas PC as their chaplain for the PM shift.
