United Caribbean Trust is seeking
to establish a Caribbean equivalent to Samaritan's Purse
Operation Christmas Child.

Samaritan’s Purse is a wonderful
International Christian relief and development agency, working
in over 100 countries worldwide .One of its best known project
is Operation Christmas Child. It has grown to where over seven
million needy children received gift-filled shoe boxes last Christmas.
United Caribbean Trust has
a deep desire to be an expression of the love of Christ
on earth, bringing hope to children in Africa, Haiti and
Dominica responding to meet the holistic needs of the child
– physically, emotionally and spiritually.

Special thanks to St Silus school (below)
for their wonderful efforts - they where the first school
to be ready!
We want Make
Jesus Smile to be much more than a shoe box ministry,
receiving this gift means so much to the African and Caribbean
child or orphan. Just knowing that someone, from within
the Caribbean, whom they will probable never meet, cared.
Your efforts will bring joy, hope and a little of God’s
love into a desperately poor situation, remembering the
true meaning of Christmas – so...
This year we want to help again but shipping
Christmas gifts to Africa is very expensive, so instead of
sending a gift we are seeking donations.
This is part of UCT Africa Appeal
programme
We are trusting that there will be enough
funds to show the Jesus Film in Chechewa as an outreach to
the children of Africa.
We also desire to work with Pastor
Lafleur in association with
Restoration Ministries Antigua, we are appealing to the churches
and schools within Barbados to help us 'Help Haiti' this
Christmas and Make Jesus Smile.
We need 500 Christmas gifts
for Haiti, UCT is seeking to send our Haiti representative
Robertha Alleyne to Haiti with Pastor Lafleur this Christmas
to assist with the distribution and establish the Sponsor
Programme.
United Caribbean Trust
is looking to establish contacts within Dominica by introducing
the Make Jesus Smile Christmas 2006 programme
into the Carib Territory this Christmas. Please work with us
to see this dream become a reality.
Taking part is so easy -
Simply
filling a shoe box with a range of small items suitable for
a child of your chosen gender and age range, you can send
a ‘box of hope’ to Haiti in the
north or Suriname in the south.
Our
relationship with trusted in-country partners in Africa, Dominica
and Haiti ensures that each box is delivered to a needy child.
