CHRISTMAS GIFTING TREE
Last year our parish accomplished a wonderful thing in providing toys and clothing for 25 children at the Elm Park Community School, as well as food gift cards for their families. This year, considering economic conditions, it is feared that many children throughout Worcester County may not have a toy for Christmas. A charity, that has received accolades as being the Best Charitable Organization is the TOYS FOR TOTS program. It serves all of Worcester County and this year they need help more than ever, and to that point, I am pleased to share with you that The Giving Tree Program for 2025 has chosen TOYS FOR TOTS as our charitable partner.
We are partnering with the Boylston Police Department to insure the safe delivery of the toys to the TOYS FOR TOTS distribution facility. You can participate to help put a smile on the faces of a child this Christmas. Simply buy what you can afford. Children from the ages of newborns to Age 12 will be thrilled because of your generosity and love.
Bring your unwrapped toy(s) to the Church Hall…you will see the Giving Tree drop off
Toy(s)can be dropped off until Thursday Dec 11th
If you do not have time to purchase a toy and writing a check would be easier, a special Church account has been set up. Simply memo your Check to the Armenian Church of Our Savior with a note designating Toys for Tots….All checks need to be received by December 1st . A team of church volunteers will happily shop for you.
Toys such as Nerfs and plastic facsimiles are popular and are accepted.
Please help us do the work of our Lord in celebrating His glorious birth and spread your love to those who might not have a Merry Christmas without your support. Think of the warmth that your heart will feel on Christmas morning, knowing that you are doing the work of our Lord and making a small child feel happy and loved.
Thank You!
Warm Holiday Wishes,
Der Tadeos
