Looking for ways to give to the community this Christmas? Our church collects for four different charities in December. Each year, we set up trees to fill with gifts which are distributed to people in need the week after Christmas. Your gifts make a difference!

Determined Service means that we show God’s love for other by meeting the needs of the whole person. Consider helping in this season by donating to one of these collections in December:

• Bike Ministry Tree – Grab an ornament from the tree, or shop from our Amazon Wishlist to help supply our volunteers with the parts they need to get spokes to folks this holiday season.
• Colony Cupboard – This ongoing collection for students of Brecksville Broadview Heights Middle and High School helps fill needs that equip students in need for lifelong learning.
• Food Tree –Your donation of non-perishable food, household cleaning items and toiletries will help those served by Cory UMC’s food pantry and weekly meals. Cory is a distribution center for The Hunger Network of Greater Cleveland, serving the Glenville neighborhood in Glenville.
• Hat & Mitten Tree – Donate hats, scarves, mittens, gloves and socks to help warm the people served by Trials for Hope. Volunteers from Trials for Hope visits camps for the unhoused in Cleveland every Tuesday and Thursday. Your gift will help warm the people served during the cold Cleveland winter.

If you’re moved to help, bring your donations to the ground floor of the church by December 28. The giving trees are located in Fellowship Hall and the Colony Cupboard box is near the main entry door.
