Christmas Market

The Most Important Gifts You Can Give
The items for sale at CCPC’s Christmas Gift Market
from 12:30 to 2 pm on Sunday, November 5,
can transform poverty into prosperity, hunger into plenty,
and sickness into health.
Here’s how it works:
- Select a gift from trusted organizations like Heifer International and the Medical Benevolence Foundation in honor of a friend or loved one, and you’ll be sharing your kindness and compassion for others in your gift recipient’s name.
- Choose an animal, support a midwife’s training, or fund a supply kit for a school child—your choice will help a family somewhere in the world become self-reliant.
- You will receive a beautiful handmade gift card to present to your recipient to let them know you have made a gift in their name.
