Our Annual Outreach Project
Christmas Gift Festival
Don’t miss the annual Christmas Gift Festival on Sunday, November 15 as we invite representatives from three local agencies to share the important work that they do in our community. This is an opportunity to learn about these organizations and donate to support their missions.
- Chip In Batavia: Chip In provides help and support for students and their families in the Batavia School District who are homeless or on free/reduced lunch. Chip In provides clothing, food, rent/utility assistance, transportation, day care, furniture and more.
- Hands of Hope: Hands of Hope is a non-profit community organization in Geneva, Illinois offering no-cost guidance and support for children, adults and families experiencing grief from a death loss.
- Radical Love: Radical Love is a non-profit organization that helps resettle refugee neighbors in the Fox River Valley area and connect the refugee neighbors to helpful resources in our community.
The Outreach Team will be available to accept donations in Paxton Hall on November 15, 22, and 29. We will have special gift cards for you to inform friends and relatives of a donation made in their honor. It is a great gift for those “impossible to buy for” folks on your Christmas list!
Here are ways to make donations:
- Write a check to the church with “Christmas Gift Festival” in the memo line.
- Give online: https://onrealm.org/CCBatavia/give/CGF
Use the MEMO drop down to select the agency you wish to support, or simply

Agency.
