The Christmas season provides a perfect opportunity to serve our community and show them the love of Christ more intentionally. Scroll to see the different Christmas outreach opportunities available through Westover Church this year as well as our Christmas events and services! 

Operation Christmas Child 

Westover is a longstanding partner of Operation Christmas Child, and we two ways you can get involved!

1) Pack a shoebox! 

We have shoeboxes and instructions available at our Local Missions Wall. We also have an incredible Volunteer Team that would love to answer any questions or assist you in getting your family, group, or neighborhood involved. Want to build a shoebox online? Click here.

2) Serve during National Collection Week! 

Westover serves as a collection site for shoeboxes in the greater Greensboro area. During collection week (November 18–25), we are expecting to collect over 20,000 shoeboxes! We need a LOT of hands to help this happen. Click here to sign up to help!
