Christmas is all about the Gift
Each year Victory 1:27 works with our team in Uganda to host a community Christmas Celebration. This event is a time of worship, discipleship, and gift-giving that provides an amazing opportunity for outreach to the community. Our children look forward to the celebration all year long, and our team is so excited to be able to celebrate the greatest gift – Jesus Christ.
The Christmas Celebration (in Uganda they call it the “Christmas Shower”!) is made up of several different ministries that pursue two specific goals: Provide gifts for our children and feed the hungry. Food insecurity in Uganda is a constant challenge, providing an opportunity for our team to follow the example of Jesus by feeding the hungry and then sharing with them the bread of life.
Christmas Gifts
Your donation provides personalized gifts for each of our V127 children; for some this may be the first Christmas gift they have ever received.
Gifts of Food
It is our goal this year to feed 1200 families in the community that would not otherwise have food for Christmas, as well as specific outreach to the elderly and police.
We need your help
We need 2 things from each of you to make this Christmas Celebration an exciting and joyful time for each member of our V127 family. The deadline for each is November 9th, which is just around the corner!

A Christmas Donation
Our team in Uganda will use your donation to purchase gifts for each child. Each child will receive something they need (a blanket, backpack, shoes, underwear, sheets, socks, etc.) and things they will enjoy (a toy, soda, snacks). They will know the gifts are from their sponsor, and that makes them extra special!
Additional donations go directly to providing food for families who need it, to bless those who are malnourished and struggling. We need your donation by November 9th.
Select “Victory 1:27 – Christmas Offering” on the give form to give online, or follow the instructions to give via check.
A Christmas Letter
We need a letter from you to accompany your child’s gift. The letter is a gift in itself! It doesn’t have to be very long, but it will mean so much to them. We ask that you take a few moments, using the special Christmas Letter form linked below, to send in your letter by November 9th.
