Sunday, November 29, 2026 - Sunday, December 13, 2026
This Christmas, you have an opportunity to make a meaningful difference in the lives of children and families in our community by sharing the love and hope of Jesus!
For many families facing financial hardship, providing Christmas gifts for their children simply isn't possible. Together, we can help bring Christmas joy to approximately 280 families in need!
On December 19, Grace Loves will host Christmas with Grace, where parents can shop for Christmas gifts for each of their children, completely free of charge. For some families, these may be the only Christmas gifts their children receive.
We need your help to make this possible! Here's how you can participate:
- Purchase toys or gift cards: Scan the QR code to sign up through our SignUpGenius to purchase toys or donate gift cards for older children. All toys must be new and unwrapped.
- Drop off or ship your gifts: Bring your donations to church on Sunday, December 13, or have them shipped directly to Grace Loves at 46100 Woodshire Dr, Sterling, VA 20166.
- Volunteer: Help us create a special Christmas experience for families on December 19! Sign up through our Grace Loves Linktree: https://linktr.ee/gracelovesgcc
Your generosity is about so much more than toys. It's about easing financial burdens, giving parents the joy of choosing gifts for their children, and reminding families that they are not forgotten.
Together, let's share the love of Jesus and help make Christmas possible for children and families in our community!
