The children of prison inmates, ex-offenders, and people struggling with addiction often miss not only a parent at Christmas, but also Christmas gifts. During this Christmas season, we have the privilege to partner with Mission Gate again and provide gifts for needy children. There are angel ornaments on a tree in the lobby so you can take an angel, buy a gift, then put the unwrapped gift under the tree. Please make sure gifts do not include toy guns or anything portraying or encouraging violence. Gifts are due back by December 8th. Thank you for making the season bright for a child in need!

In his letter to the Galatians, Paul encourages believers to “share each other’s burdens, and in this way obey the law of Christ” (Galatians 6:2). Life can be hard sometimes, and we aren’t meant to go it alone - we’re meant to do it as part of a group. If you're interested in joining or starting a Group, check out efree.org/groups!
