Opportunties to Serve the World at Christmas
This year, we have lined up a couple of opportunities for students to serve the world in East Lake at The Lovelady Center. They are listed below. Please contact
Alanna if you are interested in helping. This is also a chance for you to get others in your family or small group involved with you!
Santa Store (for girls only) – Each year The Lovelady Center offers a store for mothers to “shop” for gifts for their children. These gifts are donated to the center. We will be purchasing gifts for teenagers this year with money raised by students during our change war (which, in case your forgot, the GIRLS won)! They offer the opportunity for volunteers to join in by helping wrap gifts. On December 19th, our girls can help with this. Here are the details:
December 19 from 8am-1pm – (Middle School Girls) Each girl needs to bring a roll of wrapping paper, tape, scissors, and money for lunch (fast food).
December 19 from 4pm-9pm – (High School Girls) Each girl needs to bring a roll of wrapping paper, tape, scissors, and money for dinner (fast food).
Afternoon Entertainment for Children – The kids there are out of school the same time as our students. They often get bored and need some entertaining. This year we will help with that on December 21-23 and 28-30 from 2-4pm each day. Each day we will provide an activity of some sort (craft, games, etc.) and cookies. This can be an opportunity for small groups, families, etc. to serve at Lovelady. The Student Ministry will plan and provide the activity, those going should provide cookies (either purchased or home baked) for the kids there and their own transportation to Lovelady. If you are interested in coming, please let Alanna know which day you are interested in. There are roughly 20 kids there and I would like to be able to pair each child with someone from Brook Hills for this time.
