Christmas is beautiful - but we know it’s not easy for everyone. Some of our ‘neighbours’ are doing it tough and may not have food on the table or gifts to give. As a church family, our goal this year is to support 25 local families again.

If you’re new to Outlook or need a refresher, here’s how it works:

• Community nominations: local families in need are nominated to receive support
• Family-to-family: each nominated family is “paired” with an Outlook family who buys age-appropriate gifts for their kids
• Breakfast hampers: our whole church community contributes to food hampers - think simple breakfast items for Christmas morning (cereal, long-life milk, pancake mix, spreads, juice, coffee/tea, treats)
• Collection day: just before Christmas, nominated families come to a hosted collection day where they receive their gifts and hamper with dignity and care.
