Christmas Gift Appeal 2023
We
look forward with joy and hope to celebrating our Saviour’s birth at
Christmas and what this means to us as Christians. Yet we are mindful
of those less fortunate in our midst who struggle to find the joy and
hope or indeed the peace of Christ’s birth.
‘Emmanuel’ means God is amongst us. What better way of showing God’s love than to share it with those we encounter.
At
worship at Cumbernauld Old on Sunday 10th December we will be holding
our Christmas Gift Appeal in support of the food banks both here and at
Bethlehem House of Bread at Cornerstone Church. If you are able, we
invite you to please bring your donations along to Sunday worship on
the 10th December. Gifts for all ages are welcome, preferably unwrapped
(to allow for easier distribution). A special request for gift vouchers
for teenagers has been made, which is something I think we can all
understand.
Grateful thanks for all your steadfast support for
the food bank throughout the years, both practical and in prayer. Your
response especially during our special appeals has been nothing short
of amazing and it’s never ever taken for granted. Your compassion and
generosity make a difference and it’s a privilege to witness that first
hand.
