Adopt-A-Family Gift Tree

We are providing gifts for three families this year! These families are referred to us by WAIM who coordinates this yearly giving project. Each family has supplied us with a ‘wish list’ of gift ideas, and needed items. Gift tags for these items can be found on the Adopt-A-Family Gift Tree in the lobby.

Here's how you can help:

1. Choose a gift tag(s) from the Gift Tree.

2. Write your name and contact info on the gift sign up sheet.

3. Go shopping!

All gifts must be returned to the church, wrapped and ready, for delivery no later then December 21st.

If you are interested in making a personal connection and helping to deliver the gifts, please get in touch with Karen Anger.

Thank you for helping to celebrate Jesus' birth by spreading God's love!
