According to the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, roughly 5 percent of adults in the United States experiences PTSD in any given year. The VA reports that women are more likely to develop PTSD than men, with around eight in every 100 women experiencing the condition compared to four in every 100 men. That disparity is partly attributable to the types of traumatic events that women are more likely to experience than men, such as sexual assault. PTSD can develop after an individual goes through or witnesses a life-threatening event. Though the VA notes it's normal to experience stress reactions after such events, it's also typical for people to begin feeling better after a few weeks or months. When individuals experience stress reactions that last longer than a few months, they might have PTSD and should contact a physician immediately.

Alex Nsengimana, a native of Rwanda, shared his testimony at Florence Baptist Church recently about how an Operation Christmas Child shoebox changed his life and how it plants the seed of Christ in children all across the world. He was a recipient of a shoebox while in an orphanage in Rwanda and said he remembers specifi cally the items in his box. He talked about receiving a candy cane, the fi rst he had ever seen, and he said he ate the candy and the wrapper. Operation Christmas Child was offi cially kicked off at Florence on April 26.
