What I love about that video is that we hear from pastors that are there year-round in Sudan. They know these children and are working to bring them into a relationship with Jesus. And that is the next step that Samaritan’s Purse is taking in the areas in which the boxes are delivered. They have started a program called The Greatest Journey. This program is a 12 lesson discipleship courses designed for children around the world to know who Jesus is and how to follow Him. It is taught by trained, LOCAL teachers who are invested in the children in their area.
This next video shows children in Mexico go through The Greatest Journey course and graduate from it. This is an exciting extension of Operation Christmas Child because it means that local pastors and teachers are participating in actual discipleship of the children. The shoe box gift is just the beginning…the gospel message is moving forward and children are embracing it and following Jesus all over the world!
