“For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me… ” Matt. 25:35-36
Would you like to help a needy family this Christmas? You can by “adopting” a child for Christmas. The Giving Tree will be set up in the fellowship hall Sunday, November 23rd and Sunday, November 30th for you to select a child. Here’s how it’s done.
1. Each needy child has an ornament on a small Christmas tree in the fellowship hail. Select a child and take the ornament off the tree.
2. Purchase Christmas gifts for that child. Plan on spending from $25 – $50. The ornament will list the child’s age, sizes, and some gift suggestions.
3. Return the gifts to the church by December 7th • Attach the ornament from the tree to the gifts. The gifts may be wrapped or unwrapped. You may use a tag to put the child’s name on the gifts but please leave the “from” blank.

The children’s names were received from “Holiday Depot”. Holiday Depot is a clearinghouse organization for the Lapeer County area. Schools, churches, community service groups and government offices direct all families in need during the
holiday season to Holiday Depot. Holiday Depot determines if the family is truly in need and compiles a list of names and family details. Last year more than 3000 people received assistance.
