AFTER GOD USED A SHOEBOX GIFT AND THE GREATEST JOURNEY DISCIPLESHIP COURSE TO TRANSFORM THEIR FAMILY, A MOTHER AND SON NOW TEACH THE SAME 12 BIBLE LESSONS TO OTHER CHILDREN.
Katarina Horvathova used to live a nomadic life. But while she and her son, Daniel, lived in a shelter for a number of years, Daniel had the privilege of receiving a gift-filled Operation Christmas Child shoebox gift. His 8-year-old heart delighted in the toy airplane he found inside because he wanted to become a pilot when he grew up.
But his life took flight in other ways when he enrolled in The Greatest Journey discipleship course. Through 12 Bible lessons, both he and his mother put their faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. Today, the duo lives in their own apartment, but they return to the shelter regularly to teach others the same discipleship course they experienced.
Katarina said, “The Greatest Journey is the journey of leading children to God.”
KATARINA FROM SLOVAKIA CAME TO CHRIST WHEN HER SON DANIEL ATTENDED THE GREATEST JOURNEY, SAMARITAN’S PURSE DISCIPLESHIP COURSE FOR SHOEBOX RECIPIENTS. TODAY, THE MOTHER AND SON SHARE CHRIST BY TEACHING THE SAME COURSE TO OTHER CHILDREN.
You can bless a child like Daniel! It’s National Collection Week (Nov. 13-20) when more than 4,500 drop-off locations are open across the United States and Puerto Rico to receive your prayerfully packed shoebox gifts for children in need around the world.
