Orphan Sunday - A Call to Local Churches to Care for the Fatherless

Orphan Sunday, on November 11, 2018 is an amazing opportunity to celebrate God’s deep love for the fatherless! This year, we invite local churches to take a stand for orphans and share about Gifts of Grace's ministry during their Sunday morning service.

Whether you observe Orphan Sunday annually or this is your first time hearing of it, we encourage you to check out this short video where Francis Chan shares how adoption is a picture of the gospel. 

Please consider celebrating Orphan Sunday with us and churches across the globe on November 11, 2018 in order to bring awareness to the plight of the orphan, encourage believers to walk out James 1:27, and support life-affirming ministries such as Gifts of Grace.

Here are some practical ways local churches can celebrate Life. Love. and Adoption on Orphan Sunday:

1. Have a Gifts of Grace staff or board member share about our mission and ministry.

   2. Share one of these Orphan Sunday videos during service: https://vimeo.com/channels/593323 along with a Gifts of Grace slide or bulletin announcement to inform congregants of a local avenue to support life and adoption. 
   3.  For churches who want to financially partner with Gifts of Grace, consider taking up a love offering.  We are happy to meet with or email you a short presentation on the financial needs of our ministry.
   4.  Invite your members to a fundraising night at Panera Bread in Lafayette, IN or Avon, IN on Thursday, November 15th from 4:00-8:00 pm.  Simply show this flyer when you order, or use code PRFUND when you order online for Rapid Pick Up or Delivery.
