Christmas Giving Projects
Christmas is all about God’s gift to us and so we respond by giving to others. One of the ways that we do that each year is through the Christmas offering we receive to bless those in need in our community and around the world.
Richmond Hill Community Food Bank
Richmond Hill, Ontario
Locally, the offering will go to support the Richmond Hill Community Food Bank, serving 3,000 people every month. We want to give so that our neighbours don’t go hungry this Christmas.
FRANCOIS AND NATHALIE TURCOTTE
Quebec
Nationally, the offering will support the ministry of Francois and Nathalie Turcotte, who serve with AEBEQ in Quebec, Canada. His vision is to see the French-speaking province of Quebec transformed by the gospel through healthy, mission-focused churches that depend on the Holy Spirit. François prays that the churches within AEBEQ will grow in vitality and purpose and that God would raise up 100 new workers to meet the significant spiritual and missionary needs that remain across Quebec.
JOSEPH AND DORIS NAJEM
Lebanon and Syria
Internationally, the offering will also support the ministry of Joseph and Doris Najem who serve with Partners International Lebanon and Syria, focusing on church planting, discipleship, leadership development, and theological training. Recent regional conflicts have even created new opportunities for outreach, including online evangelism and emerging Business as Mission initiatives. Joseph requests prayer for seven upcoming entrepreneurs from Lebanon and Syria—that their businesses will thrive, glorify God, and become strong witnesses that advance His Kingdom throughout the region.
FAIR
Bangladesh
Internationally, the offering will support The Fellowship Agency for International Relief (FAIR). In partnership with local churches and International Justice Mission (IJM), FAIR launching a program to rescue young women and girls from sex trafficking. The Freedom | Bangladesh appeal aims to fund 50 rescue operations, each costing $10,000. These operations include training local first responders to identify and investigate trafficking, equipping teams to carry out rescues, and developing a network of trained lawyers, social workers, and other professionals to support survivors and pursue justice against traffickers. Throughout the entire process—from rescue through rehabilitation—FAIR integrates the local church to provide ongoing care, advocacy, and community support for survivors.
