Finding True Freedom at Christmas

Beth’s dad liked to drink. Sometimes he’d drink too much and end up behind bars. He wasn’t always there when Beth needed him.

But he did something special for her while in prison—he signed up for Angel Tree.

Every year, thousands of kids receive gifts from their incarcerated parents with the help of Angel Tree.

Love and Warmth for Prisoners’ Children

With Christmas just a few weeks away, thousands of Angel Tree children are still unassigned. This means that boys and girls in your own community may not get to unwrap a gift from their mom or dad in prison and hear the Good News of our Savior. Will you help share the joy of God's greatest gift to us this season?
