SHOEBOX RECIPIENT SPEAKING TOUR - EVANGELINE FRANZON - MAY 8TH - 12TH

Evangeline was born in Cebu, Philippines, where her family lived near a dump area. She had to skip school and babysit her younger siblings while her mom worked seven days a week, providing food for the family. Evangeline received a shoebox gift when she was 13 years old. There was only one left, and they offered it to her. Its contents met many needs for Evangeline and her family. Toothbrush and toothpaste especially stood out to her, as those were items they couldn't afford. She also remembers receiving coloring books and small toys. To hear more how a shoebox gift assured that God loved her and her siblings, please join for a special time of Evangeline sharing her testimony.
