Maple Grove United Church will be partnering once again this year with Kerr Street Mission for the Christmas Wonders Program Pyjama Drive. This program helps to bring a merry Christmas to those who are less fortunate. We ask that you give what you can to ensure these children have a new pair of pyjamas and socks waiting for them on Christmas morning.
There are several ways you can help.
Option 1– You can buy the pyjamas/socks. Please leave them unwrapped, along with the receipt and your name, either in the Church office reception area or under the Christmas tree in the foyer in the box marked “pyjama donations.”
Option 2-You can donate with a cheque or cash:
-by noting your name and “pyjamas” and leaving it in the Sunday offering plate
-by noting your name and “pyjamas” and leaving it in the Church office
-by an e-transfer to [email protected] (please include your name and “pyjamas” in the message box)
For either option the amount will be added to your year-end income tax receipt.
Please pick an ornament with the child’s size and gender from the Christmas tree in the church lobby starting November 3rd. Please ensure all pyjamas/socks or donations are in by December 8th at the latest to allow time for your generous gifts to reach families before the holidays.
We thank you once again for your kind support of this program and helping Kerr Street Mission ensure the children have gifts to open on Christmas morning.
Your MGUC outreach committee.
