Upcoming events

Our team hosts lots of different events throughout the year, from local events to chicken barbecues. Find the latest news on what we’re up to this month!

National Collection Week

Save the date! National Collection Week is November 18 – 25, 2024. Interested in joining us? Find out more about what we do all year long!

Show children around the world that God loves them.

When you pack a shoebox for a child in need, not only is that child blessed by the thoughtful gifts you’ve placed inside, but they get a chance to hear about God’s Greatest Gift.

About Us

The Adams County Area Team was formed in 2018. We organize and plan various Operation Christmas Child events in Adams County, Pennsylvania.

Currently, we have eleven year-round volunteers, six of whom are Drop-off Team Leaders and also serve as Project Leaders with their churches. We also love that one of our Drop-off Team Leaders also serves as the Area Coordinator.

God has done amazing things with our small team through friendships and the privilege of being part of His Great Commission. If you are interested in joining with us to spread the Good News through the simple act of packing shoeboxes, let us know. We’d love to hear from you!
