LEADER Shesi Azeez DESCRIPTION

Through Angel Tree Christmas, children with an incarcerated parent experience love, hope, and connection during the holidays. Donors provide gifts on behalf of the parent, helping families find new strength and reminding each child that they are not forgotten. To participate, a $50 donation is required. This amount will be used for you to purchase gifts for a specific child, making their Christmas morning extra special. Together, we can bring true joy to local children and their families as the Gospel continues to change hearts and restore lives.

Lunch will be served promptly at 12:00 PM, so the cooking team will arrive earlier to prep and serve together with care and excellence. Let’s share God’s love in a tangible way, one meal, one smile, one moment of hope at a time.

Every kit is more than just items, it’s a gesture of hope and kindness that makes a real difference in someone’s day. Let’s come together to serve, bless, and spread love to families in our community!

In partnership with Meals on Main, we’ll be preparing and packing ingredients for Thanksgiving meals to bless individuals and families who are clients of Meals on Main Street.

We are also asking everyone to please donate side items that a family can prepare and enjoy for Thanksgiving. These extra touches help make each meal feel special and complete. Suggested items include boxed mashed potatoes or stuffing mix, canned vegetables like corn, green beans, peas, or yams, cranberry sauce, gravy packets, macaroni and cheese, rice or pasta, cornbread or biscuit mix, and dessert mixes such as brownies, cookies, or pumpkin bread. Please bring your donated side item on the day of the event so we can include it in the Thanksgiving meal packages and bless families in our community with a full and joyful holiday meal.
