It is that time of year once again! Each year Victory 1:27 works with our team in Uganda to host a children’s Christmas celebration. This event is a time of worship, activities, and fellowship that provides an amazing opportunity for outreach to the community. This all-day event is one that our children look forward to all year, and though current circumstances will necessitate some changes, our team is so excited to be able to celebrate, serve, and worship together. 

This year our team is stretching even further than they have before, hosting four (!) Christmas celebrations on the same day, instead of one, to safely manage the amount of people and allow for extra precautions in food preparation and social distancing.

Gifts & Love

Our Victory 1:27 children will each receive a personalized gift bag for Christmas, full of things they need and things they will enjoy along with a letter from their sponsor. ❤

Community Outreach

Our team will distribute beef and rice to hundreds of families who would not otherwise have food for Christmas. Members of our V127 family are asked to invite neighbors and friends who are in need and they share the gospel and food together. We also make a special effort to appreciate the Ugandan police force with a gift of food. 

Food, Fellowship, Family

A day of celebration full of worship, games, activities, and a big meal for all in attendance. This year the youth of Victory Covenant church are helping to facilitate offering 4 different times for people to gather and celebrate (safely) together.

~ What we need from you ~

A Gift for Your Child

Our team in Uganda will use your donation to purchase gifts for each child. They work very hard to personalize the gifts for each of our children so that they receive both something they need (a blanket, backpack, shoes, underwear, sheets, socks, etc.) and things they will enjoy (a toy, soda, snacks). The children will know the Christmas gifts are from you, and that makes them extra special. Additional donations go directly to providing food for the outreach ministry, to bless those who are malnourished and struggling. This year, more people than ever need our help. We need your donation by November 16th.

Select “Victory 1:27 – Christmas Offering” on the give form to identify your donation. 

Write 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 form linked below, to send in your letter by November 16th

Pray

Pray that we will reach more and more people with the truth of the gospel. Pray that hearts will be encouraged, lives will be transformed, and the practical gift of food this Christmas season will point people to Jesus, the Bread of Life!

Year after year your generosity has enabled us to do even greater things in the Ugandan community with our V127 Christmas Celebration. This year we have set our most ambitious goal yet: $10,000! We know that God will provide, so visit this page over the next 3 weeks to see our progress!
