Art For Operation Christmas Child 2025

 

“A Praying Princess” By James R. Stewart Jr. Prismacolor & Crayola Marker and Color Pencils.

One of the greatest joys of the Christmas season is preparing Samaritan's Purse Operation Christmas Child Boxes with my wife Shavon. I enjoy creating works of art on the backs of small note cards, including a message of love, prayer and encouragement and inserting them into the boxes. Images created have themes of Holiness, Whimsy, and Childhood. 

"A Praying Princess" is inspired by the tender scene of Snow White praying in the 1937 Disney Classic. I hope that it will be a inspirational work for a young girl. 

"Gathering The Boxes" is a reminder of the joy that goes into many missionaries (that includes volunteer packers at drop off sites) who work to make Operation Christmas Child possible. 

Prayer and Power go into each of the millions of Operation Christmas Child boxes that go out around the world. I may never know in this lifetime who recieves these images, but it is our prayer that they be blessed and know King Jesus!
