The Happy Grandmas

Operation Christmas Child

YES! is collaborating with Samaritan’s Purse and Operation Christmas Child in a special way this year to help spread the word about this amazing serving opportunity. This is the second of four stories we’re pleased to share.

Barbara Korn and Margarita Sosa are both in their mid-70s and refer to themselves as "The Happy Grandmas." Together, they make hundreds of stuffed animals each year to pack in Operation Christmas Child shoebox gifts to share God's love with children across the globe.

"Making these creations has given me so much assurance that the Lord is using me for His purpose," Margarita said. "If I can see and I can sew and cut and thread, I'll be doing this until I die." Barbara agreed and encourages Christians to never underestimate the power of God to work in the lives of those who are available and obedient, regardless of their age.

"Every day when I get up, I choose to do something," Barbara said. "And as long as God keeps us healthy, we will continue to make these cuddly creations."

The mission of Operation Christmas Child is to demonstrate God's love in a tangible way to children in need around the world. Through this project, Samaritan's Purse partners with the local church worldwide to share the Good News of Jesus Christ and make disciples of the nations.

Whether you create an item for a shoebox or pack one, it can make an eternal difference in the life of a boy or girl. "One box is going to reach a child—that's a soul that is going to be touched by Jesus," Margarita said. "One child at a time, it's going to make a difference."
