Calvary Crafters
Calvary Crafters meets every Thursday morning from 10:00 a.m. until noon to create amazing crafts for Operation Christmas Child shoe boxes. Operation Christmas Child, a ministry of Samaritan’s Purse, delivers shoe boxes filled with crafts, toys, and candy to children all around the world who may not receive a Christmas gift otherwise. Calvary Crafters puts together more than 100 shoe boxes each year.

Current Crafting
Calvary Crafters is currently working on shoeboxes for Operation Christmas Child 2024. About 10 crafters meet each Thursday to handcraft items for “shoeboxes.” With each project, with each stitch of their needles, with each cut of their scissors, with each tie of ribbon, they are spreading the gospel to children around the world.
Donation Needs
Calvary Crafters relies on material and monetary donations to provide the materials needed and to cover shipping costs for the boxes they create each year. Calvary Crafters will occasionally request donations for needed materials to complete the projects for the shoeboxes.
Current needs are:
- White/bright-colored t-shirts
- Toothbrushes
- Soap bars (not Irish Spring)
- Youth sized flip-flops
