Holiday Gift Drive & Amazon Wish List

The Outreach Committee is happy to share we are partnering with the local non-profit "Gifts for Kids" for our Holiday Gift Drive, for our 3rd year in a row.  Gifts For Kids has helped ease the financial burden for low-income families in Norfolk County during the holidays since 1990. 

This year we are sponsoring 4 children.  Three of them are siblings.  Jadiana, a girl age 9 who loves cheer, gymnastics and Lilo & Stitch, and her brothers Jayden age 4 who loves superheroes and hot wheels as well as 2.5 year old Josiah who loves everything soccer. 

We are also sponsoring Axel, a 12 months old little boy who needs pajamas, a winter coat and some toys this Christmas. 

The agencies that Gifts for Kids supports also need general donations including diapers, winter jackets, hats, mittens, socks, clothing, books and gift cards.  

There are 2 ways to give:  

1. Visit the "Giving Tree" located in the sanctuary to pick out an item to purchase, or simply purchase one of the general donation items listed above, and bring back to church, unwrapped, by December 7th.  

2. Use this link to visit the Amazon Wishlist to purchase something that will be mailed directly to Christine Bemko's house.  While shopping, please make sure the item will be delivered by December 7th. 

In addition to gifts, please also consider donations of wrapping paper!  Partially used rolls of wrapping paper are always welcome. 

Thank you all for your generosity during this especially challenging year. 

Best, 

Christine Bemko & the UCC Christian Outreach Committee
