Is It Too Early For Christmas Shopping?

If you're like most people these days - you probably responded with an emphatic "yes!" After all, we haven't even reached Thanksgiving yet and just barely finished with Halloween.

But I'm not talking about shopping for family, I'm talking about shopping for those who don't have a family. I'm thinking of those who probably don't have anyone shopping for them at all.

Our annual Christmas catalog is a great project for a small church group or office team to do just that. You can download and print this PDF and put together a drive with your small group to do some Christmas shopping for those less fortunate even if it seems quite early. While we are certainly in the middle of heavy preparations for Thanksgiving, we're already looking ahead to Christmas.

The Holidays are a critical fund raising period for us. In these next two months alone, we need to raise nearly 40% of our annual budget.
