Christmas Offerings

All offerings received during the 2025 Christmas Eve and Christmas Day services will support feeding ministries at these local organizations.

Galilee Ministries of East Charlotte has a multitude of nutrition programs that help alleviate food insecurity.

Feeding Charlotte reduces food waste and addresses hunger by collecting fresh, unserved, surplus meals from restaurants, caterers, and institutions and delivering them to local nonprofits that feed the hungry. 

Thank you for supporting these vital organizations that work to nourish the bodies, minds, and spirits of our beloved neighbors here in Charlotte.
