Bethel Global Christmas

Surprise friends or relatives with a gift given in their name to improve the lives of children in need in India, Tanzania, and the Philippines. Educate your family and friends about the joy of alternative giving that brings basic life necessities to others, and can change a life forever!

“Whoever accepts a child like this in my name accepts me. And whoever accepts me accepts the One who sent me.”

– Mark 9:37 NCV

Giving to God’s Children Around the World

Bethel’s Global Mission Team has assembled a variety of gift opportunities for each of our Global Mission partners. We hope you will be inspired to honor family and/or friends with a gift that goes far beyond traditional giving and moves us closer to the true spirit of Christmas… of Christian love, and service to others. Of lifting up our brothers and sisters in Christ, even thousands of miles away. Whether the thought of a sleepy head with a full tummy in loving care at one of our partner orphanages, or perhaps a young woman at MaaSAE Girls Lutheran Secondary School in Tanzania delighting in a brand new uniform, textbook or lab supplies, or maybe the gift of a brighter future, of surgery and “new” legs to run on – the opportunities are here!

Each gift includes a card describing the gift and the mission partner, along with a presentation gift box or petal envelope (choose one) with ribbon and tag. Gifts are available Sunday mornings before or after service, during the week in the church office, or by contacting Darline DeMott at darline.demott@gmail.com or 304-947-5198.
