Bags of Joy
This year, we are excited to partner with Love Christmas to spread hope and kindness in our community. Love Christmas is a UK-wide initiative that encourages churches and communities to come together to support those in need during the holiday season.
We will be building Bags of Joy to bless a number of children at our local St Mark’s Primary School. These bags will be filled with fun treats like sweets, games and crafts, showing these kids that they are loved and cared for. We invite you to join us in this mission of generosity and compassion!
How to get involved
We are looking to make 25 Bags of Joy, for children aged 3-10.
Bags to fill will be available to collect from St Mark’s from 1st December. We would suggest filling a Bag with 5-6 age-appropriate items, using the below list as inspiration!
Deadline
All Bags should be packed and ready to be brought into church on Sunday 15th December.
If you have any questions about what items to include, or anything else related to Love Christmas, please feel free to get in touch with Oli at olibate1@gmail.com!
