Love Christmas 2024

At Christmas, we often sing “It’s the most wonderful time of the year.” However, for many around us who are struggling with loneliness, ill health, unemployment, homelessness or bereavement, Christmas can be an especially difficult time. That’s why during this season, we have the opportunity as a church to show kindness to others in need and to offer them a message of hope.

Love Christmas at HTC

Through Love Christmas, HTC is partnering up with hundreds of other churches to deliver Bags of Kindness throughout the nation and to those who might appreciate a little extra love and kindness this Christmas.

We want to be generous during this holiday season and help others know that they are not alone and to experience the joy of Christmas.

How to get involved

Bags of Kindness

We are looking to make 600 'Bags of Kindness' for individuals and families to receive this Christmas. If you or your connect group would like to make your own bags to deliver to church, please use the list provided below to inspire you.

Alternatively - it might be more convenient for you to check out our wish list. Items you order there will be delivered to church and packed by the Love Christmas team the week before hand out.

Deadline

All items should be packed in a labelled gift bag, and delivered to HTC by Sunday 15th December.

If you have any questions about what to put into the bag or about anything else, please do get in touch! Feel free to contact outreach@holytrinityclapham.org
