TIS THE SEASON - TO GIVE!

The Christmas season is an incredible opportunity for our church to bless our community! We have three serving opportunities for you to give some of your time and yourself, bringing the joy of Christ’s birth to others.

Thanksgiving Baskets / We will begin collecting food items on November 2nd and will deliver turkeys and Thanksgiving baskets on November 24th

Wreaths Across America / This is a national program that places wreaths on the headstones of military veterans. We will be volunteering at the Iowa Veterans Cemetery. Wreaths Across America takes place in the morning on December 13th. You can click here to sign up to volunteer.

Dream Kids Christmas Store / Our church leads a program called Dream Kids for the children at the Deer Ridge Apartment complex. Each Christmas we help the kids to shop in our Christmas store, using our “Christmas Cash” to purchase gifts for their parents and guardians. Dream Kids Store is happening on Saturday, December 13 @ 2 pm. You can click here to sign up to volunteer.

Our BIG GIVE financial goal is $40,000 which will go toward the launch of a building fund for our church. As you give at the end of 2025, all of the funds marked “BIG GIVE”will go into a building fund that we are starting as we look toward the purchase of our own building in the future. You can give online or by check or cash. Please clearly mark all gifts “Big Give” If you are giving a large gift, we encourage you to do so by check to avoid the fees associated with online giving. Thanks!

GINGERBREAD BASH / SATURDAY, DECEMBER 6

The Gingerbread Bash is a fun, hands-on Christmas event for kids and families. Your family will build gingerbread nativities, hear the Christmas story from the Bible, sing songs, and discover the life-changing gift of God’s Son, Jesus. Journey Kids is hosting The Gingerbread Bash on Saturday, December 6th at 10 am. Feel free to invite your family, friends, and neighbors! Registration is required and you can do that here.
