year-round in Sudan. \u00a0They know these children and are working to bring them into a relationship with Jesus. \u00a0And that is the next step that Samaritan&#8217;s Purse is taking in the areas in which the boxes are delivered. \u00a0They have started a program called The Greatest Journey. \u00a0This program is a 12 lesson discipleship courses designed for children around the world to know who Jesus is and how to follow Him. \u00a0It is taught by trained, LOCAL teachers who are invested in the children in their area.<\/p>\n<p>This next video shows children in Mexico go through The Greatest Journey course and graduate from it. \u00a0This is an exciting extension of Operation Christmas Child because it means that local pastors and teachers are participating in actual discipleship of the children. \u00a0The shoe box gift is just the beginning&#8230;the gospel message is moving forward and children are embracing it and following Jesus all over the world!<\/p>\n<p><object
