Lakeview Chapel has been the greater Owego’s drop-off location for Operation Christmas Child for the past 20 years.  Over these 20 years we have collected over 26,000 shoe boxes. We are blessed to be the hands and feet of Jesus to the children who have received these boxes.  If you are interested in assisting with National Collection Week by volunteering to help receive boxes, please contact the church office at (607) 687-3261.

Below you will find information on National Collection Week as well as how to pack a shoebox and how you can track your shoebox to its destination.  Or, click these links for more information about Operation Christmas Child and Samaritan’s Purse.
