Paul Brandt readying The Christmas Convoy for Operation Christmas Child

Toronto, Ontario, Canada (September 11, 2006) – The invitation is out for Canadians to rally with Paul Brandt and his journey to collect shoebox gifts for Operation Christmas Child. This load of gift-filled shoeboxes is being collected in order to be hand-delivered to children in countries under the strain of war, disaster, famine, poverty, and disease.

In cities across Canada Paul Brandt will roll in with a gift-wrapped semi-truck to load with gifts generously donated by Canadians. During each of his events, Paul will take the stage performing a few songs from his upcoming Christmas album entitled A Gift, which is set for release early in November. He is excited to take the time to thank his fans for their support and will be signing autographs and talking with many of them after each of these performances. Paul Brandt is also delighted in the support of the media and is looking forward to thanking many in person. He will be available for interviews prior to hitting the stage and would love this opportunity.

Operation Christmas Child is kicking off another season of blessing children around the world with gifts donated by caring Canadians. The international Christian relief organization Samaritan’s Purse uses this program to bring joy to children who wouldn’t expect to receive a gift for Christmas. Collection sites are receiving gifts until November 18th. These sites include Safeway stores in Western Canada as well as various churches and schools across the country.

On this tour, The Christmas Convoy, Paul Brandt will collect the first of the gifts and provide more awareness for Operation Christmas Child. Paul looks forward to seeing you at these events across Canada.
