Christmas is a time of great joy as we await the birth of Jesus. Many of us put items on our Christmas wish list and take time to buy our friends & families gifts we know they will enjoy to celebrate the Christmas season . Some of us even participate in Operation Christmas Child or Toys for Tots, these organizations are great because they provide gifts to children in need! No child should feel sad on Christmas because their parents could not afford to get them a gift.
This year, consider making Christmas a little bit brighter for a family in need in our own parish. Bellow is a shopping list for a household that could use some help this Christmas. Choose 1 (or maybe more if you are feeling extra generous) people on the list to buy a gift for. Bring the gift (unwrapped) to the Youth Ministry Christmas party where you will wrap and make a card for the family. If you don’t have time to purchase a gift, consider giving a donation and the Core Team will pick out a special gift for the family. All gifts should be new and age appropriate. Need service hours? Turn the page over to find out how to turn this into a confirmation service project!
