Christmas Hampers 2023

Expressing the Love of God to Others

We can express the love of God in concrete and tangible ways. This year we are inviting small groups, families, and individuals to sponsor Christmas Hampers in support of two ministry areas. They are "Vancouver Urban Ministries (VUM)" and "Help for Lytton". You can choose to support one or both. Please join us in supporting these ministries and the families they serve.

Vancouver Urban Ministries

VUM is a ministry that helps break the cycle of poverty that exists in our city. They provide a number of strategic services, like 1-1 tutoring and musical education, so children can have a good start to their education. Website: myvum.ca

Christmas Hampers for Vancouver Urban Ministries 
We are grateful for your generosity in supporting the VUM Christmas Hamper Appeal. Christmas 2023 will continue to present a significant challenge for low-income families due to rising costs. This year, your love, generosity, and kindness are just as important as in previous years to ensure that families will have a joyful Christmas. We are inviting you to bless as many families as you can with hampers this year.

If you would like to give a hamper to VUM, please sign up here.
Deadline to sign up is Sunday November 12, 2023.

Help for Lytton

Christmas Hampers 2023
Christmas is fast approaching, and we are inviting small groups, fellowship groups, families, and individuals to sponsor and prepare Christmas Hampers. This year our goal is to prepare a minimum of 30 hampers to some Lytton families. Each hamper is a tangible way to express God’s love and our care for the community. We want to bring the families something special for their holiday celebration.

Please pick up a hamper box and instruction list and fill it with Christmas goodies. 
The deadline to sponsor a Christmas Hamper for Lytton is Sunday November 26, 2023.
