Major Retailers Want to Give Our Church Money for Christmas Shopping!

It is time to think about shopping for Christmas while using our fundraising program.
The beauty of scrip (gift cards) is that you put your regular household shopping dol-
lars to work. You earn money for our youth without spending a single extra penny.
Half of the money earned is going to the next National Youth Gathering trip and the

other half is for other expenses. In the past this money has paid for youth to go to
camp, NIS youth assembly, NIS ski trip and more. Scrip can be used for just about
any household purchase including food, clothing, entertainment, gasoline and

even dining out. It is also an easy way to purchase those gifts
that you need.

Orders are due the second Sunday of the month and cards are
normally here the following Sunday. The November order is
due on Sunday the 10th. There are hundreds of scrip cards to

choose from. The December due date is Dec. 8th. That gives

you two months for Christmas gift shopping.
Order forms are available in the narthex and also on our website. Shannon Brown
