The mission of Operation Christmas Child is to demonstrate God’s love in a tangible way to children in need around the world. Through this project, Samaritan’s Purse partners with the local church worldwide to share the Good News of Jesus Christ and make disciples of the nations.
Women on Mission

WOM also leads mission offerings such as Annie Armstrong, Lottie Moon, and the State Ray Roberts. The WOM is a vital part of the church's mission efforts.

Lottie Moon Christmas Offering
In 1873, Lottie Moon was appointed as a missionary to China. She spent nearly 40 years sharing the gospel with love, courage, and unwavering faith. Her letters home inspired churches to pray and give, leading to the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering for International Missions. Today, this offering supports missionaries and helps take the life-transforming message of Jesus to the nations.

Every tract printed by the Fellowship Tract League has been given away free of charge, as the Lord provides.
