We are inviting you to serve our community with gifts to our mission partners & missionaries.
Here are seven opportunities for you to give:
- Hope for Korah – They have a gift catalogue available online at org/gift-guide. You can give a child breakfast, become a sponsor and lots more.
- Joshua House – There is a large box near the mail boxes in the church foyer where you can deposit items such as shoes (sizes 11, 12), winter coats (sizes L,XL, XXL), new socks & underwear for the men overcoming addiction.
- Brand New Life – You can provide a child a full set of clothes, including shoes, for $70. Donate through New Life and mark it for “Brand New Life”.
- Esperanza – The green house New Life built was taken down by a tree in a storm this year. We’d like to replace it. Donate through New Life and mark it for “Esperanza Greenhouse”.
- Youth Unlimited – A faith-based organization that meets vulnerable youth in Abbotsford needs funds to support their ministry to youth. They also would be blessed by baked goods and hot chocolate, contact the Youth Unlimited office via email (jacquie@youthunlimited.com) for arrangements. In the New Year, there will be opportunities to volunteer with Doug’s sports programs at the two Sumas Prairie schools.
- Archway Food Bank – You can bring food or monetary donations to the church. Food can be placed in the large box near the mailboxes and monetary donations should be made out to New Life Church, but marked as “Archway Food Bank.”
- Donate to one of our missionaries: Fred in Middle East, Eve in Ethiopia, Fernando in Colombia, Doug in Abbotsford or the Barnhoorn family doing Bible translation work for Nigeria.
We know there are many ways to give and many things to which we can give. Let us give with thankful hearts in response to the gift God has given us.
Either donate directly to the cause you choose or through New Life by any of our giving methods, but make sure you clearly indicate in the memo who the gift is for. There are also many giving Catalogues made by other non-profits such as World Renew.
Please give all gifts by December 20.
We wish you joy as you reach out to others this Christmas Season.
Merry Christmas!
