Every year, The Salvation Army helps share the joy of Christmas with thousands of families across the country. This season, our local church is running its annual Christmas Present Appeal, collecting new, unwrapped toys and gifts to support children who might otherwise wake up without a present on Christmas morning. Your generosity will help us bring hope, comfort and a smile to those facing hardship. Together, we can make this Christmas a little brighter for everyone. If possible, please bring in your unwrapped present to the service.
