If you know a non-believer, give them the gift of the real reason for the season. Be bold in telling them how Jesus came to take away their sins and make them a part of God’s family. Ask them to invite Jesus to come into their life.

Pray with them and help them in any way you can. Helping bring others to Jesus is not just up to Scotty, Mark, Ty, and Ron to do. All of us should be willing to do that if we feel comfortable doing so. The Christmas gift of salvation is up to them to accept.

Another Christmas gift idea is to donate to our annual Christmas baskets that help feed people in need in our area. You can do that by putting cash or a check in one of our giving envelopes on the tables and writing Christmas Baskets. Then, put it in the wooden box.

That money is used to help buy food for the baskets. New blankets and quilts are also needed and can also be donated to help.

Judy Thomas and her village of volunteers work hard to make this happen for our church each year. They all receive a blessing from doing this. A big part of their own personal Christmas is helping others through this church program.

A letter will be put in each basket inviting recipients to our church services, addresses, times of services. And, how they can watch our services online if they cannot come in person.

The most important thing will be a plan of salvation for them to read. If they have questions, they will also have who to contact. Maybe some will come to accept Jesus.

Our Sac River Cowboy Church Christmas baskets are a great Christmas gift idea. You are helping feed their bodies and their souls.
