Christmas for Kids:
Partner With Us in This Season of Giving
Dear Friends,

It is often remarked by folks — and not a few preachers — that the Christmas season seems to start earlier and earlier every year. It is a little startling to see Christmas decorations for sale before we’ve even got to Halloween or Thanksgiving. In the church, we hope to observe a holy season of Advent preparation over and against the secular observances of the holiday season.

At the risk of perpetuating this strange problem, Saint Francis Ministries begins our preparations for Christmas even earlier than you might imagine! Over the summer, we started gearing up for our annual Christmas for Kids campaign, and now, as we head into the fall, we need your help to make a difference!

Christmas for Kids brings the hope, love, and magic of the season to every child Saint Francis serves—whether in foster care, adoption, residential treatment, or prevention programs that support families working hard to stay whole. The simple act of making a financial contribution to Christmas for Kids has the power to transform a child’s holiday.

This year, our 80th, we have also created a suite of resources to help you engage your community of faith in partnering with us on Christmas for Kids. Whether you are a long-time supporter of Christmas for Kids or a new partner, we are here to support you with ideas and resources that can help make a difference to the children & families we serve this Christmas.

Thank you for joining us in this vital ministry and most wonderful time of year!
