The Christmas Toy Shop Ministry at FBC
The Christmas Toy Shop Ministry shares the love and joy of Christmas annually with underserved families in the Griffin area. Sign ups for the Christmas Toy Shop experience have closed. On the shopping date, families who have preregistered will arrive at FBC at their appointed times and will be able to participate in the Toy Shop.
This ministry affords families (who otherwise couldn’t) an opportunity to provide each of their children with two Christmas gifts. Your generosity and volunteer support shares the love of Jesus with these families, because each adult and child may take a Bible with them when they shop with us.
Volunteers pray with the participants and offer them encouragement for the holidays. Please consider volunteering! To help out, contact Julie Joiner or fill out THIS FORM. If you have questions about the Christmas Toy Shop in general, please reach out to Lori Harvey.
Aside from donating a toy or making a monetary contribution, please pray about the way you can best support this ministry. Here are the needs for the Toy Shop each year.
- Setting up and taking down the Toy Shop.
- Assisting the Toy Shop clients.
- Serving on the planning team.
Would you like to donate a gift, but you forgot to pick up a tag from the Christmas tree? Or, maybe you are crunched for time and can’t make it to the store? Don’t worry! You can donate a gift to the Christmas Toy Shop from our Amazon Wish List by using the button below, or you can make a monetary donation with the Give button by selecting Christmas Toy Shop from the drop down menu.
