CALVARY'S CHRISTMAS EVENTS:
GIVING TREE • NOVEMBER 30-DECEMBER 14
One of the best gifts of Christmas is giving! Here are three easy ways you can give this season to help our community.
United Way & Kalon Prep Academy
We are proud partners of the United Way Lakes & Prairie Holiday Gift Program. The program connects families who need help purchasing gifts for their children with another person (or group) who would like to sponsor them.
Kalon Prep Academy is a charter high school in Alexandria whose mission is “to meet students where they are and guide them where they want to go. We will do so by listening, leading and launching them on a path to become the best version of themselves.” Calvary is partnering with Kalon Prep to provide gifts for students who need extra support at this time of year.
• Pick up an ornament starting November 30th on the Giving Tree at church
• Ornaments list 1-2 gifts per child or student
• Consider partnering with another person or household to adopt more than one child
• Unsure what to purchase? Gift cards are a great option!
• Return all gift cards and UNWRAPPED gifts to Calvary by December 14th
Big Hearts
Big Hearts of Central Minnesota is a partnership between Stony Creek Dairy, Elden's Fresh Foods, and Calvary Church. A full Christmas dinner will be provided to any family who would like it. If you would like to apply for a meal or donate, click here.

JINGLE JAM • DECEMBER 6
DECEMBER 6 • 9-11AM
Jingle Jam is an interactive Christmas show filled with songs, videos, games, and the story of Christmas — a fun way to celebrate the joy of Jesus’ birth in a new and meaningful way. Doors open at 8:45am. After Jingle Jam, we’ll have an After Party with games, crafts, a service project, cookies, a photo booth, and of course, Santa! This free event is for the whole family — especially preschool through elementary-aged kids — and it’s open to the community. Invite your friends and neighbors!
CHOIR CANTATA • DECEMBER 14
DECEMBER 14 • 1:30PM
The Calvary Choir will offer a performance that weaves together the Christmas story through narration and beautiful choral music. The Cantata begins at 1:30 in Calvary's Worship Center and we'll enjoy Christmas treats following the performance. This event is free and open to the public.
