Christmas Eve Special Offering
It has been our long-standing tradition every Christmas Eve to receive an offering that we give away entirely outside the walls of our church. We have been doing this for years! It’s a simple way of expressing our gratitude to God for the gift of His Son, and of extending Christmas love and care to needy people and places in our world.
This year, our Christmas Eve Offering will be distributed to meet both global and local needs.
Globally: Relief in Sri Lanka
This year we are standing with a ministry to young people, Youth for Christ Sri Lanka.
Sri Lanka is a tear drop shaped island off the southern coast of India. It’s a beautiful tropical island. But today, Sri Lankans are facing their worst political and economic crisis in 74 years. The Sri Lankan economy has completely collapsed.
Our partner asked, “Please pray that other nations would come and help us with dollars. The nation is bankrupt with no funds to purchase fuel, cooking gas, essential food, and medical supplies. Many people are on the brink of starvation.”
Our special Christmas Eve offering will help YFC staff and their 800+ volunteer families with Relief Packs of food and essential school supplies, as well as provide emergency cash support for urgent medical, fuel and unexpected needs.
Locally: Organizations in Our Community
Each campus will give a portion of the Christmas Even special offering to partner organizations in our local communities that support the people around us. Details for each campus will be provided during Christmas Eve service.
