A Different Kind of Giving This Christmas

Today in our staff meeting one of our team members shared how their family has decided to not give gifts in the usual way this Christmas. Families typically just give each other stuff that no one needs, but it's tradition, so we continue to do it. Who wants to be a Scrooge?

He shared that their immediate family and extended family have decided to pool their money and donate it to a ministry that seeks to bless the weak, broken, or defenseless, or simply to an individual who is in need.

Might be something worth considering this year. Might speak volumes to an onlooking world.

Maybe it's not either or but both/and?
