At Next Level, our mission is to love Jesus, love people, and make a difference. We believe that Jesus’ love has changed us for the better and we want to share His love with others. To help us do that, we partner with various organizations in the community.
Operation Christmas Child is a project of Samaritan’s Purse, an international relief organization. Operation Christmas Child (OCC) delivers joy and the Good News of Jesus to children in need around the world through gift-filled shoeboxes. The shoeboxes are packed full of toys, supplies, and personal care items and are delivered by local church partners. Each box provides an opportunity to present the Gospel in a clear, child-friendly way. Click here to see the amazing journey a shoebox has and the potential impact you can have.
We’d love to see our church fill and send out 200 shoeboxes. Here’s how you can help make a difference:
To fill a shoebox:
- Stop by the Operation Christmas Child display on a Sunday to pick up shoeboxes and directions.
- Follow the directions and fill your shoeboxes
- Return them to Next Level Church by Sunday, Nov 1
If you need help packing your shoebox, head over to OCC’s How to Pack a Shoebox page.
Thank you for helping make a difference in the lives of children around the world!

Ongoing Partnerships
THRIVE is committed to assisting peninsula individuals and families through difficult times. They provide emergency financial aid to those who are facing eviction or utility cut-offs. But THRIVE’s aid goes beyond just paying a bill. They desire to see their clients become financially independent. To help people accomplish this, THRIVE offers financial coaching free of charge and every person seeking assistance from THRIVE must meet with a financial coach at least once. In addition to assisting financially, THRIVE offers emergency food assistance through their food pantry.
Because of your generosity, we are able to financially support THRIVE on a monthly basis. Visit https://www.thrivepeninsula.org/ to learn more about THRIVE and how you can get involved.
