Beloved Church Family and Friends,
With the Christmas Season upon us, we have two wonderful ways in which you can help those in need during December. The first is our annual Christmas Giving Tree which is up and beautifully decorated in the Narthex at Church. The second is to help prepare and serve meals for homeless individuals and families with Maureens Haven.
The Giving Tree is decorated with ornaments, each labeled with a gift request. Please take an ornament and return your gift(s) by December 14 in order to bring winter essentials and Christmas cheer to local families living below the poverty line this Christmas!A big
THANK YOU to all who took ornaments already. You can also donate here in the link below or on the Church’s website for easy giving.
Your gifts will be distributed through Heart of the Hamptons, Southampton Public Schools and Hampton Bays Public Schools. Your gift will bring joy to an East End Family living below the poverty line as we Celebrate the Birth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!
Also our Church has been asked to participate in a second Maureen’s Haven program. Maureen’s Haven provides meals, shelter and other services for homeless individuals and families. We are looking for volunteers to cook and serve for Maureen’s Haven at the Bridgehampton Childcare Center. Teens above the age of 16 are welcome to serve, people under the age of 16 are unable to go into the center to serve, but are welcome to help in other ways. The dates below are available should your family want to help the unhoused this Christmas season. Please reach out to Anastasia Karloutsos at akarloutsos@gmail.com if you would like to cook or sponsor a Maureen’s Haven night.
Available Dates: Sunday Dec. 14th, Wednesday Dec. 17th, Sunday Dec 21st, Wednesday Dec. 24th, Sunday, Dec. 28th
Your culinary skills and general service will bring joy to those who need it most. Thank you once again for all of your wonderful support for local families in need this Christmas!
May the Almighty God replenish you all a million fold as you continue to impact the lives here on the East End of Long Island.
