2024 Angel Tree Ministry Gift Donations

2024 is the 20^th anniversary of the Kirk Angel Tree ministry!!

Every year, Kirk members generously contribute unwrapped gifts for children and teens served by CARE House of Oakland County. The Kirk is the main sponsor for holiday gifts for this organization, and your help with the Angel Tree program will make a significant impact on a child’s holiday.

Three (3) trees will be put in the Kirk starting on November 8th:  one in the Welcome Center, one in Heritage Hall, and one near the Preschool.

• Age specific tags are hung on the trees. We collect for 4 age groups (0-3 yrs; 4-7yrs; 8-12yrs; 13-18yrs).
• Take as many tags as you like!
• Purchase your gift and bring them back and put them under the tree unwrapped, with the tag(s) on them by Dec 11.
• Hang an angel ornament (in the basket by the tree) to designate a gift has been purchased for another one of God’s little angels.
• Notes about gifts:  If you would like to purchase your gifts on Amazon, and have them mailed to the church, please address them to Kirk in the Hills – Angel Tree and make sure they arrive by December 11.
• Some great gift ideas for older/teens include books, journals, makeup, nail polish, hair ornaments, art supplies.  And for the infants, baby gear is also welcome.
• Gift cards are also accepted but should be put in envelopes marked for Ann Manning and put in Sarah Ford's mailbox in the office (please do not leave them under the tree).

CARE House is focused on helping kids and teens that are victims of abuse or neglect, as well as some who are at-risk and those whose families are in abuse prevention programs.  For over 45 years, they have been providing “help, healing and hope” to the children of Oakland County. Their programs have helped hundreds of children each year.  The Kirk Outreach and Mission Ministry is a committed long term supporter of their organization.

Additional gifts from this program have also gone to support the Micah 6 Community Santa Workshop in Pontiac Their programs include providing access to healthy food through community gardens, programs for children including summer camps and field trips, and developing the Webster Community Center to provide additional programs for underserved residents.  The Kirk Outreach and Mission Ministry is a committed long term supporter of their organization.
