A personal thank you for your support this year

Stewart: Dear friends, this time last year, your generosity helped transform the lives of parents Paul and Sam. Thank you.

At a time when they faced despair and hopelessness, the local church, supported by faithful supporters like you, stepped in to bring warmth, safety and hope. You really do hold the power to illuminate lives and bring hope and joy to others, especially in this busy season. Your support has enabled us to step in to countless moments of crisis for individuals and families, meeting their immediate needs and offering the hope of a brighter, more secure future.

As we celebrate the ultimate gift of love for this season, the birth of Jesus Christ, I’m reminded how he beats both the urgent and lasting needs of all of us to bring hope to all he encounters.
Inspired by his example, we’re working to make sure children are fed, homes are warm and families can find the freedom from financial difficulty surrounded by the love of a caring community.

But the reality is that the rising cost of living is still pushing families to the brink. Together, we can make sure they don’t face it alone. And if you’re able, I’d like to invite you to give again this Christmas.

Thank you so much for your life changing support for more families like Paul and Sam. I wish you all a happy and peaceful Christmas. Bless you all.
