During the Christmas season an atmosphere of blessing is created as needs among the Open Door family and ministry partners are shared and responded to in turn.

SHARE NEEDS - November 19 to December 3

Do you or a loved one feel weight on your shoulders that your church family could help support? This may include groceries, meals, rides, help decorating or purchasing gifts, household preparations, repairs, help wrapping and mailing items, etc. There are people at Open Door that would be grateful to respond to these needs by supporting a church family member. SHARE NEEDS HERE


RESPOND TO NEEDS - December 3 - 17

Community Blessings is a fun way to respond to the needs in our family and surrounding community. They are also posted at church in the Gathering Place. We get to reach out and be answers to prayer for people in our community. It’s a gift to be able to share our needs and share our resources. Thanks for being in this together! RESPOND TO NEEDS HERE


A COMMUNITY BLESSING STORY

One of the beautiful parts of this annual tradition is the opportunity to be not only one who gets to respond to people's needs but also the opportunity to share your own. It is vulnerable to ask for help but the reality is that we will all need help from others at one point or another in our lives! Take a listen to one church member's experience with getting to both give and receive.
