Breckenridge Chapel

Breckenridge Chapel Responds to Operation Christmas Child

For the second year Breckenridge Chapel has participated in Operation Christmas Child.  Shoe boxes filled with gifts and essential items are sent by churches through Samaritan's Purse to missions throughout the world to distribute to children.

Last year (2010) Breckenridge Chapel participated with thirteen boxes.  This year (2011) the congregation responded with twenty-two boxes.

A big thanks goes to Kim Snead who coordinated and led the effort.

Samaritan's Purse Refugee Camp Is Bombed

A few days ago I visited a refugee camp in South Sudan, where Samaritan's Purse is helping care for some 23,000 refugees who have fled the atrocities of the government of Sudan. The camp has been a safe haven for these suffering people. But Thursday, the violence followed them when the camp was bombed by the very government they have been fleeing.

Four bombs were dropped. Praise God, we have confirmed that all of our staff are safe and accounted for, and as of now there are no reports of people injured on the ground.

These people are in need of immediate prayer. Please pray for safety for the refugees, and for our staff. Pray for peace to come to this troubled region. Most of all, please pray that the people we are helping will find lasting hope in Jesus Christ.

Thank you, and may God bless you.

Sincerely,


Franklin Graham

(Note: Samaritan's Purse is the organization through which the Operation Christmas Child boxes are distributed worldwide.)
