Hello Crosswalkers,
Just a reminder that this Sunday, December 13th, is the last day we of the Harlem Explorers Christmas Gift Drive. This is a church-wide effort to bless the children of the HE program and also the children and families of the East Harlem community who participate in the special Christmas Celebration on the 19th.
Every Christmas, close to 100 children from the community participate in the Harlem Explorers Christmas Celebration. IN2 Crosswalkers were blessed last year to serve with the program by setting up game stations and a picture booth for the Christmas Fair. This year we are participating in this celebration as a church by donating gifts for the children.
As Pastor Marc has been sharing with us, we are growing as a church in learning to serve and give to our local community. We remember the teaching in scripture to love our neighbors (Matthew 22:39) and to give (Acts 20:36)!
As you prepare gifts for the drive, please remember that we are looking to give $10 non-gender specific gifts. Please wrap them and put them on the front of the stage in the sanctuary.
Blessings to you as you give!
