BIBLES FOR FAMILES
We have the opportunity to bless new Angel Tree families with a family Bible that matches the ages of their children. Please feel free to pick up a “Bible Donation” envelope at the Angel Tree table and help us put the Good News of Jesus in the laps of these little ones and their caregivers. If you would like to donate online, please make a note that it is for "Angel Tree Bibles.".
LOVING CAREGIVERS WITH GIFT CARDS
The women of the church are collecting $5 gift cards to be given to the moms, dads, grandparents, and aunts & uncles, who are raising our sweet Angel Tree kiddos. Help us remind our friends they aren’t walking this road alone and that they too are loved, seen, and prayed over. A gift box to collect the gift cards will be available at each Bible study, the Angel Tree table on Sunday mornings, and in Betty’s office throughout the week.
ABOUT ANGEL TREE
Angel Tree, a ministry of Prison Fellowship, seeks to connect parents in prison with their children. By purchasing, wrapping, and delivering gifts to kids on behalf of the incarcerated parent, we help remind children of the love their mom or dad has for them. This ministry provides us the opportunity to build genuine friendships and to encourage the parent in prison, the child, and their caregivers with the love of Jesus.
