.CrossRoads Angel Tree Ministry
Each Craft Social is hosted by CrossRoads United Methodist Church. All proceeds from these events benefit our Angel Tree Ministry and will provide a full Thanksgiving meal and Christmas gifts for less fortunate families that have been adopted by the church through the Belton Welfare Association.
Each craft day is organized by the CrossRoads Angel Tree Ministry Team. We'd like to share some background information so that you are aware just how important your participation is and where your donations are distributed. Your donation is very much appreciated and is a part of the grand total raised to assure that disadvantaged families in our community experience enhanced holidays. It is a stark reality that these recipients may not be able to celebrate Thanksgiving and Christmas without our collaborative endeavors.
In 2018, 13 families were delivered all the essentials for a traditional Thanksgiving meal. Those same families, at Christmas time, received a Walmart gift card and at least 2 gifts per family member. Our Angel Tree Ministry and a few generous volunteers spent time reviewing the recipient's wish lists. Then we shopped with the raised funds. A couple of 'wrapping events allowed us to provide presents to place under their tree. There were 14 families in 2019, and in 2020, 29 individuals received a minimum of 2 gifts each. In 2021, we assisted a dozen families. And we are happy to say that we were able to assist 18 families in 2022. In 2023, we provided 12 full Thanksgiving meals and gifts for 2 adults and 20 children, ages 1 month to 14 years of age with Christmas presents. Our adopted families, as well as the community, were invited to our Cookies with Santa event.
With this snapshot of our Angel Tree Ministry, we hope you have an understanding of how very essential you and your donations are in assuring that CrossRoads United Methodist Church is enriching our community. With sincerity, we thank you for your contribution to this worthy cause and pray that your life is enriched through this ministry. God bless you.
