Hello Parents! This is a little early, but I know some of you get a head start Christmas shopping, so I wanted to give you the heads up! This year instead of buying gifts for each other in the classroom, the third and fourth grades have decided to buy gifts for children in need. I have chosen two nametags off the “Giving Tree” in the hallway outside of our gym, and your child can either purchase a small, inexpensive gift for this child, or can donate money toward that child’s wish. We are so excited about this! Many of the kids have asked if they can donate their allowance, and/or buy big gifts! I am floored by their generosity and excitement! What awesome witnesses of Jesus’ love they are…I have told them to talk to you about this and to pray about these things first, and if you are so moved, you can donate a small amount to our classroom project, and then take another name off the trees for your family. Thank you so much!
Please send gifts and/or gifts cards to school by December 9th. We will wrap them here at school, and then they will be given at the church services on the 10th and 11th. Thank you in advance for all you can do to help!
Here are details about our “kids:”
There is a 7 year old son who would like Matchbox cars and puzzles.
There is daughter who is 5 and loves arts supplies and needs colored socks (wears size 9 shoe).
If it is a wish to donate money or give a gift card to the family, one to Wal-Mart would be great.
Thank you and God’s Blessings!
