BE A PART OF MOVEMENT’S FREE CHRISTMAS STORE
Movement Church will be hosting our second annual Movement's Free Christmas Store on Saturday, December 14th for eligible families in the Hilliard City School District. This Christmas Store allows parents to select brand new toys and gifts for their children ages newborn - 18 at no cost to them.
Our goal is that each child would be given 3 gifts. Thanks to your dedicated tithing throughout the year, Movement has allocated $10,000 to the purchase of these gifts. But we still need your help! While Movement will purchase some larger item gifts we are asking each person to contribute a gift priced $10 or more.
If you would like to help us reach that goal, you can shop our Amazon List! If you would like to do additional shopping here are some things to keep in mind...
We are shopping for these general categories
(high school) boy, girl and gender neutral.
(middle school) boy, girl and gender neutral.
(elementary school) boy, girl and gender neutral.
(toddler) boy, girl and gender neutral.
Each of those categories consist of the following price ranges:
$10-$15
$15-$20
$20-$25
$25-$50
$50+ (up to $160 for brand new bicycles)
If you shop the Amazon Wishlist, gifts can be delivered directly to Movement Church (2881 Walker Rd. Hilliard, OH 43026. If you are purchasing your own gifts, you may drop them off to the Movement Church Resource Center (in office hallway) on Sundays mornings or Monday-Tuesday from 10am-3pm. Gifts must be dropped off by Sunday, December 8th.
