Jesus at the Center of Christmas

This Christmas, we encourage everyone to ATTEND, GIVE and SERVE as we put Jesus at the Center of Christmas.

Your generous donations of new toys, gift cards and everyday essentials like home goods, clothes and shoes will bless families and individuals this season. Your help is essential, and you can make a real difference by volunteering at events like Wonderland, Days of Serving and our Christmas Eve services. Explore the giving and serving options below and discover how you can personally put Jesus at the Center of your Christmas.
