Spread a little holiday cheer by sending Christmas cards to our missionaries abroad by November 15. Missionaries’ mailing addresses are listed below. A full list is inlcuded in brochures located in the church office.
Roses Creek | Adopt a Roses Creek family and help make Christmas brighter for them! The Woodland Community, also known as “Roses Creek”, is a Community Land Trust of 400 acres in the coal mining area of Clearfork Valley, located at the base of the Cumberland Mountains in northeast Tennessee. The nonprofit trust owns the land and leases it for a nominal fee To individuals who own the buildings on the land. As the home is truly their own, it provides the homeowners with the same permanence and security as a conventional buyer, and they can use the land in the same way as any homeowner.
Each year, members and friends of Sequoyah Hills Presbyterian “adopt” families from the Roses Creek Community by shopping from a list submitted by the family of specific needs. Others make a monetary donation toward the purchase of items such as country hams, and, on a day before Christmas, we load trucks, cars, and suvs, and drive to Clearfield, Tennessee to deliver the gifts. While this community needs our help every year, this year has been especially hard for them. Would you prayerfully consider adopting a family and or helping deliver gifts on 12/17 at 9am? Please contact Jennifer White at 865-363-9684 or jennifer6178@hotmail.com for more information or to adopt a family.
Thrive Parkridge Christmas Store | Please join us in donating to the Thrive Christmas Store through December 5. Students at Thrive earn “dollars” all year for good behavior to put towards gifts they can buy for their families. Click HERE to donate now.
