Christmas Wish List
October 29th 5th Sunday
OCTOBER IS A FIFTH SUNDAY MONTH: Starting in 1906, the Fifth Sunday Offering remains our largest source of church funding and is a vital component to the ministry here at the Children's Home. From the early days of our founding, the dedicated work of faithful churches has sustained the good work done here. We ask that your church once again take up a special offering for the Children's Home on October 29th. We will send a video soon to share at your
church, or on whichever virtual platform you choose. Thank you for your continued support of the Children's Home.

Christmas Wish List and Gift Card Information
Can you believe that Christmas is almost here? We are all excited as we approach Christmas once again and get ready to celebrate the pageantry, plays, carols, parties, nativities, Christmas trees, worship services, gifts, and the gift cards! Our annual Christmas gift card drive is now beginning which gives us the opportunity to demonstrate the amazing love of Christ through our gifts as we contemplate and celebrate God's gift to us through His Son. We invite you to participate with us in this endeavor by purchasing gift cards to be given throughout our Children's Home ministry to bless the children we serve.
Our staff will utilize a portion of the gift cards to purchase personalized gifts for our children. The gifts will be wrapped and placed under the Christmas tree to be opened on Christmas morning. The children will also receive some gift cards on Christmas morning, which will allow them to go shopping. Any additional gift cards will be used after Christmas to purchase needed items for the children throughout the year. • We also ask that, if not done so already, the gift card denomination be written somewhere on the gift card. • Please include a gift card receipt with each gift card, as this will help us with processing the gift cards.
