Operation Christmas Child
Planting Gospel Seeds in Africa
17 October 2024
Operation Christmas Child is helping to bring the Good News of Jesus Christ to isolated mountain communities in Ghana.
Thank you so much for the gift box and bringing me to God!
Lim Liya is 12 years old and lives in Kandal Province, Cambodia. She loves cycling and would love to be a teacher when she grows up.
She received an Operation Christmas Child shoebox earlier this year and shared “I was very excited when I received the gift box because it was my first present that I have ever received in my life. I was so excited my tears started to come down with joy in my heart… while opening my shoebox gift, I saw a lot of things that I have dreamed for and I wished I could have, such as hair clips, pencils, dolls, shoes, a bracelet, necklace, colour pencils and a beautiful dress. All these things I never expected to have. I felt cared for and loved by someone I don’t know.”
The next day, Lim Liya went to Gospel Community Church again to attend The Greatest Journey Classes. She shares, “I have made a profession of faith to the Lord Jesus Christ. While studying, I have learned that God is seeking me every day. I knew I was lost, and I have asked forgiveness and accepted Him as my Lord and Saviour. I want to know more about Him and His will for my life.”
