It is so hard to believe that Christmas is only 57 days away!! We all know that this is the time of year that a child cherishes the most. Children look forward to waking up to presents under a tree and feeling the joy of Christmas. Unfortunately, the reality is that without help many children in our area will not have this experience.
Harvest Family Ministries and Upstate Family Resource Center hope to make Christmas memorable for disadvantaged children in the area. We have asked Spartanburg County School District 2 teachers, counselors, and office staff to refer parents of disadvantaged children to our Center. We know that these individuals see the pain and disappointment first-hand all year long and especially during Christmas time from children who will have a cold and joyless holiday.
You can help us change this! Please call us and let us know you will sponsor a child (or more if you can!) for Christmas. Maybe this will be the beginning of a lasting friendship between you and the child. Perhaps you can make a positive difference in a child’s life and change their life for the better.
Join us in our mission to assist families, especially the children.
“In everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said: “It is more blessed to give than to receive.”
Acts 20:35
God Bless–
