Box of Joy

Christmas Shoebox Gift Ministry

Sponsored by the Knights of Columbus

---

This month, the Knights of Columbus at St. Andrew by the Bay will be sponsoring Box of Joy, a Christmas shoebox gift ministry organized by local Catholic schools, parishes and groups nationwide. We will bless children suffering from extreme poverty by filling boxes with toys and other gifts, sharing the joy of Christmas, and planting seeds of hope through the Gospel. We encourage everyone to pack a Box of Joy, or two, or three! If you need additional boxes, please let us know.

This year, we have set a goal to bless 200 impoverished children in Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean!

Materials will be distributed by the Knights of Columbus

September 27-28 and October 4-5 after all Masses

Return your boxes to Church

October 18-19 and October 25-26

Donations to cover the shipping of the gifts ($9 per box) to developing countries are requested to be made online at https://crosscatholic.org/box-of-joy/online or by check to be handed in with the boxes. Please do not pack the checks into the boxes.
