Christmas in September 2024

Send a Card

Before uploading your photo, consider editing it to add some Christmas cheer! Free online options include: Adobe and Canva. Both options provide Christmas card templates that you can customize to easily add your own photos and graphics. You may also consider uploading the digital version of your family’s printed Christmas card.


This month, we have an opportunity to tangibly demonstrate our love for our missionaries through Christmas in September—a ministry intended to bless and support our missionaries during the Christmas season. 

Our missionaries serve the Lord sacrificially as they look to fulfill the Great Commission. They have chosen to uproot their lives and take daring steps of faith to proclaim the gospel in every corner of the earth. While we look forward to gathering together with our families during the holidays, many of our missionaries spend Christmas in the field away from their families. Each fall, we gather notes of encouragement and financial gifts from our church family, which are then compiled and given to our missionary families in December.

To send a Christmas greeting, our church family can create digital Christmas cards by uploading a family photo to our website and customizing it with a personal Christmas message. Simply select the family to whom you would like to write, include a personal message, and upload a picture of your family. 

For those who would like to support our missionaries still further, please prayerfully consider giving a financial gift that will go toward making Christmas for our missionary families exceedingly special. 

“And above all these, put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony” (Colossians 3:14). May we reflect the love of Christ in our commitment to prayer and care to our families serving throughout the world.
