The Adopt a Family program exists to help enrich the Christmas season for families. It ensures parents and children can focus on love and family during what can be a financially difficult time. Last year sponsors contributed over $26, 000 towards this program. It is our sponsors who make this program such an amazing success.

 

There are many different ways to support a family this season. You can choose a small or large family to adopt on your own, or you can sponsor a family with friends, family, or co-workers. If you are unable to find the time to sponsor a family but want to, monetary donations can be made to our accounting department. In this case, we have volunteers that shop to accommodate the wishes of the sponsor and needs of the family.

 

If you, or your business, are interested in sponsoring a family this Christmas Season, please contact Melissa (250-554-1611 ext. 206) to make arrangements. All Adopt a Family sponsorship packages are due December 14th, 2016.

 

 

Advent 2016: We Believe

 

November 27- December 18

 

We Believe. The Advent season is an invitation to prepare for the coming of Jesus Christ. By stepping into the middle of humanity and building a relationship with us, we intimately come face-to-face with the Son of God, the Savior of the world, and We Believe that He comes to redeem, transform, and make all-things new. So may those around you this Christmas, not only experience the hope, joy, peace, and love of God, but also believe in the one who is to come!
