Be a ‘Santa Claus’ for Good Causes!

Here are three ways you can “Gift for Good” through Messiah Lutheran Church this holiday season.

1. Give gifts to local and international charities through Messiah’s Giving Mall!

Through December you can designate a gift in someone’s honor through Messiah’s Ministry Gift Mall!  This a great way to support the ministries and missions Messiah Lutheran Church regularly supports all year long.    First, pick up or download the 2018 Gifts for Mission Form and list the dollar amount you’d like each ministry to receive.  Return the form with your check to the Giving Mall box.   Don’t forget to take a card for every gift you intend to give in someone’s honor.   Bonus! Gifts given through Messiah’s Giving Mall are also tax deductible.
