We hope your family will be involved in this great endeavor in some way. What a joy to give and share the Gospel!
Christmas in Fairfield - beginning Sunday, October 20
What:
Helping in what Dr. Tom Edwards, a physician & Covenant
member, initiated last year in the Fairfield community by providing gifts and
clothes for approximately 150 children!
How:
A toy store is set up in the basement of Church of the
Reconciler in Fairfield, Alabama. CovPres volunteers purchase toys through
donations and stock the store. Parents are then able to purchase gifts for
their children at greatly reduced prices…what joy parents feel when they are
able to provide Christmas gifts for their children.
A special time of prayer is offered to families to truly
show the love of Christ to His people.
Who:
Families are selected to participate in the Fairfield
Christmas Shop from Fairfield ministries sponsored by CovPres, Dr. Edwards’s
ministries, and CovPres nursery employee’s children.
How can your family be involved?
Sponsor a child: Purchase clothing items for a
particular child, pray for this child, and donate money towards the store. A
devotional book with sorties about a typical Fairfield family, Bible verses,
and suggested activities will be provided in the sponsor packet. You will also
receive a bank for your family to save money to help purchase toys for the
Fairfield Christmas Shop. Please come to the church foyer to pick up a sponsorship packet & bank.
Make a donation: We hope to purchase 500-600
toys/gifts for $25,000. Please consider making a generous tax-deductible gift!
