Everyone is invited to participate in this much loved Christmas outreach ministry. When you are partnered with a family, you will be given a list of items each family member needs for Christmas. The families have performed numerous service hours in order to participate in this ministry. If you are unable to take on a complete family by yourself we can help partner you with another Suncreek church member to do it together. We also take monetary donations so the mission committee can purchase items for the families that do not have a partner. This is an amazing ministry that will bring the true meaning of Christmas into your family and busy lives. |

My husband is the only one that works, and with his salary it’s impossible to think of getting Christmas gifts. The kids were extremely happy to see all the gifts and food. This is truly a blessing to our family. - Lorena Zamarron, Family of 8 Our whole family is grateful for what we get. My kids really enjoy meeting and spending time with our adopting families. - Raquel Ipiña, Family of 5 Our adopting families are like angels that God sent to bring joy to our kids. - Maria Lucio Martinez Family of 7 With my husband being the only one that works, we live day to day. If it wasn’t for the help we receive, my kids would not have any gifts this Christmas. - Ana Tapia, Family of 5 My kids were so happy to know that this year our family was adopted. - Magdalena Martinez, Family of 6 I want to thank everyone that makes this possible for our families. Everything we received was great and now we even have food for at least 3-4 weeks. - Elizabeth Gomez, Family of 4 Christmas Connection is a wonderful tradition that our family has been able to participate in for several years. It provides so many different connections!! Every year, we partner with the same family or two from Suncreek to work together. We have fun dividing the list and getting our children involved in picking out clothing and toys for kids around their same age. It absolutely helps in teaching our children the gift of service and giving to others less fortunate. Helping wrap and organize the gifts with our partner family is always fun and certainly the delicious treats afterwards are wonderful! It is the best way to kick off the Christmas season and reminds us of the true meaning of Christmas. The connections we make with other families from Suncreek, our Connection family and within our own family are such a blessing! There is nothing else like it! Christmas Connection is a "must" on the Christmas list!! - Allison This is the first year for our family to experience The Christmas Family Connection. It was an amazing experience for myself as well as my family to be a part of. My sons got to do God’s work with a servant’s heart. They want to do it again next year because truly saw the difference that Suncreek made in these families lives. They feel very blessed for what they have and understood that not everyone has these blessings and realized that they could help make a family’s christmas more blessed by the gifts they can give. We look forward to next year! - The Lundberg Family |
