American Christmas, a better way?
If there were a better way to do Christmas in America what might that look like?
When we go to a birthday party, who receives the gifts or to whom do we give the gifts?
Christmas is supposedly Jesus’ birthday, so why not give our gifts to him? So, how might we give gifts to Jesus on Christmas?
“The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’ Matthew 25:40
So, if something were given to “the least of these”, it would be given to Jesus.
Christmas suggestion:
- During the year or on Christmas, have your group/family donate to a special account.
- An easy way to do this might be from your phone via Zelle.
- No one would know who has donated or how much any individual donated.
- Then on Christmas day, all would see the account balance and as a group decide where to give to “the least of these”.
