Advent Offering 2021
There are three ways to give in our 2021 Advent Offering:
Time
AFFORDABLE CHRISTMAS AT REDEMPTION ALHAMBRA
1830 West Glenrosa Avenue, Phoenix, AZ 85015
Saturday, December 11 • 7am-12:30pm
Three shifts are available, though you may work as many as you like!
The shifts are 7-9:30am, 9:30-10:30am, 10:30am-12:30pm.
Affordable Christmas is an empowering shopping experience for low-income families that allows them an opportunity to provide Christmas presents for their children at a very low cost. New toys are donated and then sold for 1/10th of the retail value. We have the amazing opportunity to serve at Affordable Christmas at Redemption Alhambra this year. All proceeds raised from Affordable Christmas will benefit the work of Foster Care Initiatives with birth families whose children are at-risk or in the foster care system.

Treasure
Our monetary Advent offering will be split between three organizations this year:
Hope Women's Center
Hope Women's Center exists to encourage, engage, and equip women and teen girls facing any difficult life situation. Their caring approach is relational and holistic, supporting the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of every woman.
Along Side Ministries
Along Side Ministries provides spiritual and practical guidance and support to incarcerated Christian men and women as they transition from prison back to the community and the church.
Immigrant Hope
Immigrant Hope works to equip churches to provide immigrants with the hope of the gospel, help finding a pathway to legal residency, and a home in a church that cares for their needs.
