Ministry Opportunity: Angel Tree Leader

Dear Church Family and Friends,

For many years our church participated in the Angel Tree Christmas outreach. For the past few years we have had no one to lead and oversee this ministry so it was discontinued. With Christmas being only 66 days away, I am asking if anyone would be interested in spearheading this project for 2007.

Angel Tree Christmas gives churches an opportunity to share Christ's love by helping to meet the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of the families of prisoners. Angel Tree Christmas works by connecting parents in prison with their children through the delivery of Christmas gifts. In most cases, local church volunteers purchase and deliver gifts and the gospel to children in the name of their prisoner-parent.

If after prayerful consideration God guides you to become involved in this project or to pioneer some other holiday outreach, please let me know and I will provide you with the needed pastoral support. We will make this announcement at church for those who do not have access to email.

Peace,

Fr. Kevin
St. Patrick's Church
