Compassion Christmas brings the message of Christmas to life by helping people respond to real needs with simple acts of generosity.
Join us as we welcome Christ and respond to the needs of others with generosity this Christmas.
What is Compassion Christmas?
During the Christmas season, we prepare to celebrate the arrival of Jesus and open our hearts to receive Him together. As churches, we share this same hope, that Christ has come and is God with us. This season invites us to respond by loving and caring for others in meaningful ways.
- Compassion Christmas equips your church with simple tools and optional weekly outlines to help your congregation give during the Christmas season.
- You will receive ornaments to display in your church, each highlighting a real need in areas such as Sponsorship, Mom's & Babies, Nutrition, Education and Safe shelter.
- You can share these needs during your gatherings and invite your congregation to respond in a way that fits your context.
- People select an ornament, scan the QR code, and give directly to the need they feel led to support.
