  • Pack a Shoebox: Boxes, brochures, labels and gift suggestions are available in the library. A suggested donation of $9 is requested for each box to cover costs of shipping, training local churches and for gospel materials included with each box. Please mail donations in the envelope provided in the brochure or use Follow Your Box. Please drop off boxes inteh Fellowship Center. Today is the LAST DAY to drop off boxes.

  • Build a Shoebox: Build a Shoebox online by clicking here find CBC’s goal page through Samaritan’s Purse. These boxes may be packed year round and will be sent to hard to reach places and unreached people groups.

  • Adopt a Shoebox: Donate $9 to help send our packed shoeboxes. Labels from our boxes are available in the library to donate online.

  • Work at the Processing Center: The Processing Center is located in Aurora, Illinois where they inspect and ready the shoeboxes from all the local churches for shipping. Many time slots are available in late November and December. Please visit Samaritan’s Purse for more information or contact Pam Wilkinson.
