Get Your Christmas Cards TODAY!!
Do you send our Christmas cards? If you do, then this year you can send them out with a little “Saint Matthew’s” flavor. The children in our Sunday School designed a number of cards last year, and this year, five were chosen and were printed and now are available for purchase! We have set a suggested donation of $5 per pack of 5 with envelopes; but any donation will do!!
Much thanks go out to Robert Belthoff for donating the printing of the cards.
Veteran’s Family Assistance Center
The Family Assistance Center in Teaneck needs our help this holiday season! They provide food and Christmas gifts for the families of currently serving and returned vets. A list of items that are needed is located on the table in the narthex. Please note that toys for children and gift certificates for teens are also needed and everything needs to be brought here to the church by December 15. Help make Christmas special for a family of a US Veteran.
Shop-Rite Gift Cards – A Perfect Stocking Stuffer
With the Christmas holiday coming up fast, we’ll all end up eating more than we should (let’s just admit it now). How about helping your church as you move toward this eating goal by picking up a Shop-Rite Gift card? We are selling the cards in $25, 50, and 100 denominations. Every time you purchase a card, you help Saint Matthew’s—we receive a 5% donation for each card purchase. And these cards make wonderful stocking stuffers.
