2. Purchase a Gift – Buy the gift listed on the ornament.
3. Return Your Gift – Bring your unwrapped gift, along with the ornament tag, back to the church by December 15.

Donation with a Purpose

Donations will go directly to local families, helping to make their holiday season a little brighter. If you are unable to pick an ornament in person, consider making a monetary donation, and we’ll handle the shopping for you!
