Gifts of Love for Kids: Going From Pumpkins to Toys

So far we have 127 children to serve this year. They are mostly asking for baby dolls, cars, trucks, Barbies, Legos, art supplies, and books. We have some families with babies that are asking for diapers and baby wipes. Watch your email next week for a complete list of wishes. Gift tag wishes can also be picked up in the sanctuary.

If you know of any company that may can help us collect toys, let me know. I’d be happy to contact them and explain our ministry.

Return your unwrapped gift to church by December 7th, with gift tag or family # included. If you prefer to make a monetary donation, we have elves standing by to shop.

As you choose a gift, pray for that child and their family. Our hope is that God’s love will shine through us to those families that are challenged to give gifts to their children this season.

On the day parents pick up gifts, we will also offer them the opportunity to choose other donated items for themselves or their family. We are collecting gently used winter clothes, coats, shoes, Christmas trees, and other decorations, along with wrapping paper, tape, ribbon, tags, and gift bags. You may also donate household items. Are your kids cleaning out their toy boxes? Donate gently used, clean toys; let them bless someone less fortunate.

Toy pick up is December 13th from 10:00–12:00. We need several volunteers on that day.
