Christmas in a Box is an annual opportunity for parishioners to donate gifts that benefit children, seniors, and families. Each year leading up to December, parishioners are invited to participate.
1. Take an ornament from a Christmas tree in the Atrium. The ornament is our thank you to you for helping those in need.
2. Find the code for your gift on the list in the Atrium and fill in your contact information, so we can ensure all gifts are accounted for.
3. Purchase listed items.
4. Wrap your gift and place the provided tag (attached to the ornaments) on the gift so that it is distributed to the correct family.
5. Drop your gift off in the Resurrection Room untilOn each tag there is a name and a few items on that person's Christmas list. We ask parishioners to return the wrapped gifts by the deadline, so that they can be distributed in time for Christmas. For gifts that are returned unwrapped, we have a team of volunteers who ensure that each gift is wrapped and ready to present to its recipient.
If you are unable to shop, you can make a monetary donation below. All donations will be disseminated through gift cards which will be purchased by our Christmas-in-a-Box team. If you prefer to donate by check, please mail to the parish office and clearly mark for Christmas in a Box. All donations are tax deductible.
Join us and experience a meaningful Christmas season filled with powerful messages of love, care, and hope for the families and individuals that will receive your gifts. Last year our Corpus Christi Parish community supported approximately 1200 families, seniors, and children. Thank you for your generosity!
