For over two decades, IEC has been sending parcels filled with love and hope to children in need around the world through our Operation Christmas Child outreach program.
In partnership with Patmos, a Finnish mission organisation, we have brought joy to countless children. Our focus this year is children in Ukraine, Moldova, and Romania.
Whether it’s a vitally needed item, such as a warm blanket or a toy to lift a child's spirits, we believe every child deserves a reason to smile. We invite you to join us in this worthwhile effort, as we continue to make a difference, one child at a time.
1. Pick up a pre-printed Shoebox from the church
2. Decide whether you will pack a box for a girl or a boy, and the age category: 2–4, 5–9, or 10–14.
3. Fill the box with gifts. Select a medium to large “wow” item such as a soccer ball with pump or stuffed animal, then fill with other fun toys, hygiene items, and school supplies.
4. Most importantly, pray for the child who will receive your gift. You can also include a personal note and photo.
5. Tie the box up with a string or rubber band. This will help the inspection process in our warehouse.
​
6. Please return the parcels to the IEC church office at Tiilipolku 6 before or after the Sunday church service.
DEADLINE: Monday, 20th of November

Let's go and HELP!
​
We are making a team to go to help in their warehouse making sure all the parcels have enough gifts, and organise and pack the trucks. We could do it with 20 people/night.
This is a great fun way do practically minister and enjoy some food also in the break.
Evenings are
Thursday 30.11 from 18 - 21
