SAMARITAN'S PURSE
Samaritan's Purse is an international relief organization headquartered just a few miles away in Boone. A ministry of Samaritan's Purse that Laurel Springs actively supports is Operation Christmas Child. Every Christmas we pack shoeboxes that reach pockets of lostness around the world with the gospel. A group of ladies in our church called Covers of Comfort meets regularly to make handmade items for the shoeboxes.
