HOLIDAY COMPASSION @ BAYSIDE GRANITE BAY
The holidays are just around the corner and we're gearing up to come alongside those less fortunate in our community!
Angel Tree
We’re partnering with Chuck Colson’s famous Prison Fellowship Ministries to share Christian love with the children of an incarcerated parent. When a parent is in prison, it is the children who suffer and often feel forgotten. You can help bring a smile to a child’s face through the provision of a Christmas gift.
Get Involved!
Stop by our booth and choose the child you’d like to bless this Christmas.
Gift Deadline: WRAPPED gifts must be returned BY NOVEMBER 24. Why is this date so important? Angel Tree parties and gift distribution begins the following week and we want to ensure each child has a gift. Contact: jharriman@surewest.net
Folsom Prison Yarn
We are helping the inmates by collecting Yarn for their ministry. They make blankets for the Homeless in the area.
Get Involved
Stop by the table to see examples of yarn and make a donation of yarn to this ministry. Contact: shauns@baysideonline.com
Christmas Angel
Christmas Angel provides gifts for children who have a parent participating in Sacramento Valley Teen Challenge; a program for adults dealing with life-controlling issues. This gift program is a link, bridge and healing factor for the children and parents mending their lives.
Get Involved!
Stop by our booth and pick the Christmas Angel you’d like to purchase a gift for this season.
Gift Deadline: UNWRAPPED gifts must be returned by NOVEMBER 24. Why is this date so important? We need to deliver the gifts to the parents in time for their Christmas gatherings. Contact: Will and Jennifer at william.hawkins@twinriversusd.org
